We start our hike at the Hoher Bogen Forest Service Hut (975m). From there we hike along the ridge to the Bärenriegel (1017m) and onward to the Schwarzriegel (1079m). There, a former American radar station, the "Cold War" Museum, can be visited.

The beginning of the return path is somewhat hidden and hard to spot.

Then, on forest roads, it goes back to the Forest Service Hut.

The path along the ridge is rocky but good for hiking.

The forest roads are mostly nice wide gravel roads.
