The route leads uphill through the forest on a wide forest path. First, it goes along the Carl Hirnbeinweg, a popular adventure trail with play and information stations. After a short descent, we leave the Hirnbeinweg and follow the forest path towards Hauchenberg. Although the route descends again just before the ridge, it is recommended to follow the path to the observation tower on foot. From there, you have a majestic panoramic view from the Zugspitze over the Allgäu Alps to the Swiss Säntis and from the Westallgäu over the Weitnau valley to the Iller valley.
