Fiddane Woodloop
Don’t ask me, why I post this walk now and not earlier. It is one of my favourite trails. Not too short and not too long. Quite easy to walk.
Suitable for everyone and every season, because you have two options to park and you can skip the hill, if necessary. Like with every walk good shoes are always recommended.
When you start here:
GPS: 52°6′27″ N 8°35′20″ W
A small parking area is provided in front of the barrier and then you can walk smoothly up the hill. It’s not very steep and leads through the grassland.
On your way up and depending on the weather you will have a spectacular view over the surrounding area. Such views might give you a feeling of limitless freedom.
Once up the hill, it doesn’t matter which direction you take as it is a circular walk. What ever suits best in that moment, do it.
The total lengths starting from here is approximately 7,5 km.
When you start here:
GPS: 52°7′2″ N 8°34′16″ W
You can park your car next to the gate and simply continue along the trail. This is almost flat without any significant gradient.
The total lengths starting from here is approximately 4,5 km
You will pass by a farm and the gate might be closed, however, there’s a stair provided.
