Iserlohn
For Sauerlanders it is the metropolis, for the neighboring Ruhr region it is the relaxing forest town on their doorstep. Between the Ruhr Valley and the Lenne, between river meadows and low mountain ranges, there is plenty of countryside. Iserlohn, the largest city in the Sauerland region, combines urban life and nature in an ideal way.

No wonder the "forest town" is also the starting point of the Sauerland Waldroute and the Drahthandelsweg leads hikers from here via Altena to Lüdenscheid. The new Ruhr-Lenne-Achter opens up the town to cyclists - with a rail connection. A relaxed ride around the Seilersee lake awaits you - even in the evening with the lights on - or an adrenaline kick in the same place at the ice hockey league's favorite shocker. A likeable underdog as charming as the entire city. The historic Maste-Barendorf factory complex is the "needle of the world" for fans of industrial culture. In the Dechenhöhle cave with the German Cave Museum, brand new LEDs put the spectacular stalactite backdrop in the right light. Vegetables straight from the farm today, shopping in the city tomorrow. Simply beautiful. Lovingly maintained half-timbered houses and Wilhelminian-style facades everywhere. Universities included. With the applause of the Park Theater behind you, the sound of the city forest in your ears and the smell of coffee from the shopping mile in your nose - welcome to Iserlohn!
