Circular hiking route Grünbach-Göltzschtal-Falkenstein reservoir

Grünbach train station - turn right in front of the Nordic Camp (onto rock trail 2) towards the Rissfälle - after the Rissfälle turn left (yellow hiking trail marking) until you meet rock trail 2 again - follow the Göltzsch to the Falkenstein reservoir - a circuit of the reservoir with crossing of the dam wall is a worthwhile extension of the route - otherwise keep to the left side of the reservoir and turn uphill into the forest - return to Grünbach via Lohbergfelsen and Luisenfels until you meet rock trail 1 - follow this to Grünbach train station
