This varied hike with forest and meadows, views, castle, and rocks begins in the small town of Schlettau. Above the marketplace, we first pass the Schlettau town church St. Ulrich, which features an oddity on the outside: the monk's head on the east side. On the church path, we head to Walthersdorf, then climb through the forest to the Scheibenberg, a distinctive plate mountain, which, like the Bärenstein (tour »Bärenstein and Vejprty«), is easily visible from afar. Up close, it has something very special to offer, as it is characterized by the "organ pipes," basalt columns up to 40 m high – a unique geological monument.

After Alte Scheibenberger Straße, continue briefly straight, then veer diagonally right into the forest trail. For a while, follow the hiking sign yellow bar. At a T-junction, turn left, then continue always straight on the main path. At an intersection, cross the paved path straight ahead. After about 50 m, we pass a shelter. The path steadily leads uphill. Back in the forest, we continue straight. Diagonally right goes over a
