The Brachtpetal Tour is a variant of the "Sauerland Valley Tour" and a delightful family tour through the Brachtpetal with its varied landscape. You can stop along the way to enjoy the beautiful scenery or take a break. There is a playground to keep children entertained.

From the starting point of the GPX track at Olpe railroad station, head towards Brachtpe. The tour continues via Berlinghausen to Drolshagen. Here you should take a look at the market square, which is well worth seeing. From here, the route continues via Benolpe to Husten and Isinghausen. From here, we follow the Brachtpe stream to the village of Brachtpe and make our way back to Olpe. Of course, you can start this circular tour at any point.
