The children from Aichelberg go to school earlier to get to Meistern or the children from Meistern go to Aichelberg every 2 weeks. The model of an alternating school was implemented here until the end of the 19th century.

A well-signposted circular hiking trail with interesting stops, especially on the former intensive use of the forest.
A section along a county road is a bit unsightly and the ascent/descent to Fautsburg is quite steep. Otherwise a varied circuit that you can join from various parking lots.

There are several hiking car parks right on the route, so you can start the tour at different points. On Outdooractive, but also on various other sites, the tour is marked as suitable for families. BUT we can only partially confirm this, there is a spot just before the castle …

We're doing two more hikes today on this beautiful, sunny autumn day (after this hike, we'll make a short detour to the Würzbach peat bog).

A few more details:
- The hiking parking lot is very small (about 4 cars). If it's crowded, consider stopping at the Rehmühle/camping restaurant or starting at the top of the mountain village.
