The forest area at Fischbacherberg (371 m above sea level) lies 2 kilometers west of the city center. Partly, the running loop runs over broad paths of the historic Achenbach circular hiking trail, through beech forests, and past the highest point, "Buberg" (380 m above sea level). The presented running loop of 8.3 kilometers crosses the Flowtrail, a mountain bike terrain trail opened in June 2017, several times, which leads down to the Numbach.
The route was developed by the regional running portal "Laufen 57", Frank Steinseifer
