Directions

We leave our starting point in the direction of Salchendorf. Upon reaching the Jakobsweg, we leave it again after a few meters and head east. We cross the L722 and walk along the northern border of the Gernsdorfer Weidekämpe nature reserve until we reach the access path to the Rothaarsteig. We follow this to the Rothaarsteig, the "Path of the Senses." At the Gernsbacher Höhe, we walk downhill towards the Upper Langenbachtal nature reserve, which we eventually cross. Continuing north, after about 10 km we return to our starting point.
