    Ich hab den Weg als Rundwanderweg gemacht, indem ich in Jüchsen gestartet bin, weiter gelaufen zur Keltenstätte Widderstatt (echt herrlich dort) und dann nicht nach Wachenbrunn sondern den Berg hoch Richtung Sendemast. Von da aus wieder zurück nach Jüchsen. Schöne, kleine Runde mit herrlichen Plätzen zum Entspannen.
