    The circuit walk runs right next to the village centre on a forest path along the Treffauerbach stream. Starting from the village centre (church), follow the road downhill to the south until you find the path down into the forest on the left just before the fire station. The path leads you along the stream and past the open-air inhalatorium, where salt water trickles on fir twigs. Take a few deep breaths, it's good for your airways. Furthermore you will pass the site of an old chalk oven. The path then climbs slightly and brings you back to the Scheffau village center. The walk ends between the church and the community hall, where you can cool off your arms and legs in the water basins.

    Roadbook

    Hike in the footsteps of the Kneipp philosophy. The energizing Kneipp route runs directly next to the town along the Treffauerbach. Follow the road downhill from the center until you reach the “5 pillars”, where the first station awaits in the forest below: a barefoot path stimulates on different surfaces from mulch and pebbles to moor mud. Continue to the open-air inhalatorium, where saltwater drips over fir twigs and cleanses the respiratory tract. Exercise on the vein stairs, meditate in a clearing, and find answers in the eagle labyrinth. Then the path gently ascends and takes you back to the town. The route ends at the church on the meeting place square with a refreshment in a foot and arm basin.
