The Hesselberg path is designed as a summit circular route. It leads to the most beautiful points of the Hesselberg and offers interesting information about the nature, history and geology of the mountain with a hiking time of approx. 2-3 hours. Sometimes the path is just a narrow path, but overall easy to walk on.

Hiking

The many small paths and paths, in large numbers especially on the south side of the mountain, in slightly smaller numbers but just as attractive on the north side, enable a variety of walks, hikes and discoveries. The small and narrow paths are also a real attraction for children
