Route description
Karlsruhe-Weststadt - Durlach station - Grötzingen - Berghausen - Söllingen - Kleinsteinbach - Singen - Remchingen - Nöttingen - Keltern - Weiler - Hochmühle - Hardthof - Ittersbach - Pfinz source - Ittersbach - Spielberg - Etzenrot - Reichenbach - Grünwettersbach - Hohenwettersbach - Bergwald - Zündhütle - Oberwald - Tiergartenbrücke - Karlsruhe-Weststadt
The "source" is indicated on maps as the confluence of some spring brooks, which emerge as seepage sources in the wet meadows above the valley. So there is not really a source or a well to be found there; moreover, this point cannot be reached on a path, but only by moving from the last bridge along the Pfinz across the meadows and through the forest.
