After the great response in 2024, the guided hike on the monastery trail from Bergkloster Bestwig towards Meschede will take place again on June 28, 2026 as a sunrise hike .
The start is at 4 a.m. at Bergkloster Bestwig (please note the current information). From there, we will head up the Ostenberg at dawn, where we will celebrate Holy Mass at the highest point at sunrise.
From the Ostenberg we continue to Wehrstapel. An extensive breakfast is planned there at around 8 am. We will then continue to Meschede, where the hike will end at Abtei Königsmünster between 11 am and 12 noon. Sturdy footwear is required for this route, as shorter sections lead through narrow paths.
Flashlights may be useful on the first section (depending on the weather, it is already dusk from 4 o'clock). In addition, every participant should have food and drinks with them. There are bus and train connections back to Bestwig from Meschede. Registration is not necessary.
