From the church in Fretterode it goes steadily uphill, then along the lawn landscape for a while through the forest to the Fretterode Cliffs. Here you have a fabulous view all the way to the Hoher Meißner. Afterwards, it goes down to the Marian Chapel near Schönhagen and up again through forest and beautiful clearings with distant views back to Fretterode. The path is poorly signposted or not all junctions are on the map. Therefore, be sure to navigate using GPS.
