Directly at the Kelterhaus begins a marked with the number 1 path that pulls through pine trees moderately rising to the west. So we come quickly to the Drachenfelsblick, a lookout point on a small rock, which allows an excellent view to the south. From here path tracks - now in an easterly direction - continue up to the Eichelfels, where a summit cross stands.
Down we take the same way, because the Eichelsberg ridge can not be further east.

The paths were very nice on the whole tour like here up to the acorn rock.
