The path starts at the beginning of Kreuzbergstraße and leads on asphalt to the thirteenth station. From there it goes over a forest path with stairs up to the fourteenth station and the Kreuzberg chapel

Hiking

The Way of the Cross leads along the road from Kronach up to the Kreuzberg. Just below the pilgrimage church, it leads the last few meters to the church via a forest path. There is also an economic chapel at the edge of the forest.
