We started the hike at the free trail parking lot. Well signposted, we walked the yew path to Zellsee. The paths were easy to walk on, sometimes a bit muddy. We passed the Gasthof Eibenwald, which is closed on Mondays. From there it went back to the yew path and back to the parking lot. The tour is very easy.
