Hermannsweg

The Hermannsweg is a 156 kilometres (97 mi) long hiking trail which follows the ridge of the Teutoburg Forest, running from Rheine to Velmerstot in Germany. It is marked by signposts showing a white H on a black background. The Hermannsweg is named for Arminius (German name: Hermann), a Cherusci chi

ef who defeated the Romans in the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest in 9 AD. Together with the 70 kilometres (43 mi) long Eggeweg, this long-distance hiking trail forms the Hermannshöhen. It is maintained by the Teutoburger-Wald-Verein e.V., located in Bielefeld.
