A route that plays with the senses of the hiker. Like the rippled threads of a sweater, the path winds and meanders through the Hochwald. Up and down. Into a valley, over bridges. Back and forth. Up and down. Grand rest places like the disused Herberloch quarry or the giant bench with a view over Weiskirchen. A hiking pleasure at the highest level for the whole family.
