    Departure is definitely possible. Unfortunately this time I was traveling with the child seat and son. Then a little more careful. Before it gets flatter there is currently a tree trunk across the trail which spoils the fun. My pocket knife saw was too small this time

        Beautiful trail - the upper part is only for experienced hikers, you may need to push your bike. Further down in the summer it is overgrown with tall grass, so the ground is not visible. You can take a nice rest at the Wetzstein itself, there is an interesting information board and you have a wonderful view of the Ochsenkopf. It is easier to get to the Wetzstein via the flat trail from the northern forest path.
