Directions

From the specified parking option 1, the F9 (route description clockwise) leads downhill past kindergarten and school with a good view of the church and the village center of Oberfischbach. Although the church is not directly on this hiking trail, a detour to it is worthwhile. From the roundabout, the F9 runs past the old "Grüne Hoffnung" mine and the home of TSV Oberfischbach up the Katzenberg. The path then leads about one and a half kilometers with views past the meadows and fields between Oberfischbach and Heisberg. It continues through a small forest where a resting spot is located. Seven hundred meters after crossing the road, you reach the SGV main hiking trail X19 (Castle Trail from Dillenburg to Düsseldorf). The F9 follows this until above the Siegerland West rest area. Here, it turns right towards Lurzenbach. From the hiking parking lot Lurzenbach, it continues for about nine hundred meters on a meadow path parallel to the paved road up to above Oberschelden. From there, it turns right towards Oberfischbach. The starting point of the hike is reached after about two kilometers through forest and new open areas (bark beetle infestation). On this section, you can also see Heisberg, Kuhlenberg, and the wind turbines on Knippen.
