Drolshagen A4 varied and relaxing

A route through the diverse cultural landscape of the Dräulzer Land: The hiker experiences all facets of the Sauerland forest: spruce cultures (the staple tree of local foresters, strongly reduced due to storms and especially summer drought causing bark beetle infestations), coppice forestry, beech stands, and mixed forest. In between, you repeatedly see cattle herds on lush pastureland. Fahrenschotten, a former farm of the Cistercian monastery Drolshagen, lies by the roadside, surrounded by imposing oaks.
