  • The starting point is the village square.
  • We follow the markings and pass the Buchtelbar
  • Immediately afterwards, turn left towards the cemetery
  • After the Köberl farm (vlg. Poihofer), the path descends slightly and we cross the Haselbach stream
  • After a few meters, we turn left and continue along the Bründlweg at a leisurely pace
  • It wasn't really strenuous yet, but we still relax with a "forest bath" and enjoy the wonderful peace and quiet
  • Fresh and refreshed, we continue to the elevated tank (local water pipe), then turn left to the local history museum and we are back at the village square.
Take time for a "Waldbaden" or enjoy the culinary delights in Wenigzell.
