Trail markers:
Marking: partly EB (red)
Route:
From the hiking parking lot Saigerhütte site or Grünthal train station follow the EB (red) marking through the industrial area to Heidenweg. At the next junction you reach Königsweg. The Königsweg leads uphill in curves to the next junction. At an acute angle the Bruchbergweg leads slightly uphill. After approx. 500m there is the possibility to take a detour to Bruchberg (668.5 m), unfortunately without a view. A short steep climb leads up on the Bruchberg. Back on the Bruchbergweg we join the Roter Hirschweg. This leads downhill to the next junction where you go to the industrial area. There the long-distance trail E3 (blue) is reached, it leads back to the starting point. (circular route)
Alternative route:
At the Bruchbergweg junction continue on Königsweg to the Schaaldenkmal. There follow the signs left to Bruchberg. After a steep climb turn left at the next junction to Bruchberg.
