Directions

We leave the parking lot and initially follow a narrow path. Then it continues through a single-family house settlement to the north up to the foot of the Schleißberg. However, this is not climbed fully; before that, the path turns right. Over a large meadow, the route now heads towards Stipendie and further into the Luchsenburg. The path then follows the Tellerweg, which is also used by many other local and regional hiking routes.
