St. George's Parish Church Bad Fredeburg
St. George's Parish Church Bad Fredeburg
The hike leads out of Bad Fredeburg to the "Kalte Schlade" pedal pool without any major inclines. A short section back through Frettel Park.
Start at the church and walk a few meters to the Burgapotheke. This is located slightly above the church on the opposite side. Follow the hiking sign BF 4 at the beginning. The path leads approx. 200 m through a small alley. Behind the kindergarten, we leave the alley and the BF 4 to the right. After another 50 m, turn left onto the road and stay on the road until you reach the end of the village. Now follow the gravel path for about 400 m to the turning area. After the turning area, turn left and walk downhill through a floodplain to reach the Kalte Schlade treading basin.At the Kalte Schlade pedal basin, the path makes a 180° turn to the left. Stay on the asphalt road for approx. 700 m until you reach the village. Follow the road "An der Lied" downhill until the "Johannes Hummel Weg" leads to the left. From here, follow the hiking sign BF 4 back to the starting point, the church.
We recommend sturdy shoes, clothing suitable for the weather and sufficient food and drink.
A rescue point system has been installed in the Hochsauerland district. Rescue points can be found on the information boards at junctions and hiking signposts. All signposts along this trail are designated as rescue points with official location numbers.
