Directions

We leave the parking lot at Hirschstein heading towards Kalteiche, which, at 579 m above NHN, is the highest elevation in the municipality of Wilnsdorf. Then we continue towards Hemmersberg and pass the CVJM Youth Education Center and the noteworthy miners' monument. After crossing the K25, we continue to the Weißbachtal nature reserve, which impresses with its unique valley view. After a short time, we reach Birkenhof. In the associated farm shop and café, we can refresh ourselves before continuing towards Ziegenberg. We walk through beautiful landscape towards Gernsbacher Höhe. From there, the path leads us along the long-distance hiking trail Rothaarsteig, characterized by wonderful views and forest paths along this route. At the viewing platform "Nose in the Wind" on Tiefenrother Höhe, we enjoy the breathtaking panoramic view and take a short break. The subsequent educational Hauberg path is also worth a visit. Afterwards, our route follows the historic border to Hesse back to our starting point at Hirschstein.
