Particularly beautiful and very popular path (from the Kaltenbrunnertal stream up to the Hellerhütte) with the hiking marking "white and red".This path was built in 1928 and was named "Emil Ohler Path" by the PWV on June 26, 1960 by setting a knight's stone (No. 189). The knight's stone and the path building block are both located at different points on this path (= each recognizable as a highlight)."Emil Ohler (June 3, 1877 - February 21, 1959), Neustadt, deserving hiking friend and founding member of the PWV, was instrumental in the construction of the [Hellerplatz] house and also in the construction of this path. [...] He has made unique contributions to the PWV and the hiking cause. [...] His work and achievements were recognized in many honors and awards."
