After an easy start in Haseltal, it goes up to the car park "Am hohen Kreuz". Here the route changes to the "Eselsweg", a long-distance hiking trail in the Spessart. Sometimes on a forest path, sometimes on an easy gravel path, Eselsweg in this section leads to the "Burgjosser Heiligen", the Rosskopf, and the car park "Sieben Wege". From the car park it first goes on a gravel road towards Pfaffenhäuser Grund, then via a forest path and finally via a trail towards Orb spring. A narrow hiking trail now leads to the "Stierruhquelle". Past the golf course it goes up to the Horst, the highest point of the route. After reaching the highest point, the route leads on a varied path via the Bieberer Hütte to the Pfarrküppel. Here a washed-out forest path awaits the mountain biker before he reaches the Haberstal trail via another narrow forest and meadow path. This is the last challenge before Haberstal and Bad Orb come within reach again.
