The circular route F1 leads through the Auerbach valley along the Mackelshelle back to Feudingen.

The hiking route F1 starts at the hiking sign at the Volksbank Feudingen and runs past the bakehouse towards the Volkshalle to the Vesper island. There the hiker is offered an information board and a seating area. We follow the F1 further into a side valley of the Upper Lahn, the Auerbach valley, with a view of the forester's house. From there it continues along the Auerbach towards Sprünge. Here the hiker again finds a rest area. On the next challenging ascent towards Höhenwegskopf, the hiker's stamina is tested. After the descent along the Mackelshelle, we pass the Vesper island with the information board again and return to the hiking sign at the Volksbank Feudingen.
