From Blankenrode, you first head south. Follow the A1 hiking trail. You will soon reach the Bleikuhlen (lead caves), where boards provide detailed information about the history of the village.
Further along, the A1 leads you down through the Schwarzbach valley and then up along the Klingelbach stream. You pass the Warburger Hütte and the soldiers' graves. Southeast of the Humbertsberg, follow the path around to the right. After a few meters, the A1 turns left into a small path. The path ends below the Blankenrode ruins and you reach the A2, which you follow in an easterly direction from here.
After a while, you pass the Teipelskreuz cross and soon the trail descends sharply. Once in the valley, follow the A2, which meets the Sintfeld Höhenweg here, uphill along the Blankenroder Bach stream. After a while, you reach the signpost for Papengrund, which you pass. A few meters after the signpost, the path leads off to the left and we follow the path into the forest. Here you meet the A7, which you now follow.
You reach the district road. From here, the path runs parallel to the road for a while until you reach the hiking parking lot at the Hörmuseum. Cross the road at the parking lot and follow the A1 again from here. You will pass the Blankenroder Hütte and soon reach your starting point in the town center.

Temporary route closures may occur due to forestry work. Entering the forest is at your own risk.
Hiking boots, drinks and provisions are recommended.
Look out for the purple galmei violets! This extremely rare species grows exclusively in Blankenrode worldwide and usually blooms between May and October.
From the A44 (exit 62 "Lichtenau, Westf.") follow Dalheimer Straße in the direction of Meerhof. From Meerhof follow the signs to Blankenrode.
The starting point for the hike is the free parking lot in the area of the Altenauquelle (town center, Hardehauser Straße). There is also a hiking sign there.
An alternative parking option is the hiking parking lot at the Hörmuseum on the outskirts of Blankenrode (Blankenroder Straße in the direction of Hardehausen) or the hiking parking lot at the Bleikuhlen.
