The OH! 8 trail leads from Silberbachtal near Leopoldstal up to the Prussian Velmerstot.

From the "Neuer Teich" hiking parking lot, the approx. 6.5-kilometre OH! 8 trail first leads through the romantic Silberbachtal valley. It then climbs quite steeply in places towards Velmerstot. Once at the top, you get a wonderful view over the Eggegebirge mountains.

The Velmerstot is one of a total of 8 adventure stations of the KinderErlebniswelt Natur, a project of the Teutoburg Forest/Eggegebirge Nature Park.
