The Hubertus route leads 5 kilometers around the town of Schwanheim.
The route begins in the town center of Schwanheim. From there, it leads south along Hubertusstraße to the junction in the forest. We follow this path to the Wasgau hut, take the right path at the junction, and walk once around the town. Then we briefly follow the premium Rimbach-Steig route before the path leads back towards Schwanheim. We reach Schulstraße and follow it back to the town center.

Safety information
Despite the marking of the hiking trails, we always recommend carrying an appropriate hiking map for safety reasons, so that, for example, in the event of a thunderstorm or emergency, one can quickly find a safe area.
Especially in autumn, it is important to note that fallen leaves on the ground can conceal unevenness, roots, stones, or holes in the path. After storms, trees can still fall or branches may drop afterward. Especially in adverse weather conditions, natural paths can have muddy and slippery sections. One must expect such trail impairments when undertaking a hike. Not all rocks or cliffs are secured with ropes or railings. Surefootedness is sometimes required. If you feel that you cannot walk certain sections of the path, you should bypass them.
