Welcome to the county seat of the Märkischer Kreis. With an altitude difference of over 300 meters only in the city area (232-539 m above sea level) you are on challenging cycling terrain. Enjoy a short stop at the Volme River. The river rises in Meinerzhagen and flows into the Ruhr after 50 kilometers in Hagen. In the past, numerous forges and hammer mills used the water power of the Volme.
