A quiet round in a secluded cornerKlosterhäseler and Burgheßler lie secluded in the Hasselbachtal valley. The former is named after a former Cistercian nunnery (founded after 1239). The early Gothic crypt, with organ building museum, is still preserved today. The baroque village church next door dates from 1766. A small park laid out in the English style at the end of the 18th century adjoins the inconspicuous former "castle", forming the start of this round.The pretty town of Burgheßler with interesting sculptures is reached first via the idyllic Lerchenberg, then through the forest. The main attraction is probably the Gothic House (around 1500), one of the few fully preserved late medieval buildings in the area. Via Burgberg and Burkersroda, the highest village on the Finne, we return to Klosterhäseler.

Der Finnewanderweg beginnt am Bahnhof in Weißenfels, führt über das Finne- Mittelgebirge und endet in Sachsenburg am Unstrutdurchbruch. Ab dort wird er mit gleicher Markierung - rotes Dreieck- als Hainleitewanderweg- weiter geführt. Besonders interessante Orte sind: Weißenfels - Naumburg - Bad Kösen - Bad Sulza - Eckartsberga - Rastenberg. Auf der Wanderung wechseln sich Laubwälder, offene Landschaften, Aussichtspunkte und Burgen ab.
Anfang 2020 erfolgte eine Änderung der Wanderroute: zwischen Weißenfels und Leißling verläuft der Wanderweg jetzt linksseitig der Saale; in Naumburg nicht mehr auf dem Saaleradweg, sondern durch das Zentrum. Sowohl in Sachsen Anhalt, wie auch in Thüringen, wurde die Wegweisung und Markierung erneuert.
