Directions

Start from the parking lot in Rehefeld. Cross the road "Am Donnerberg" and turn left behind the old mountain hotel. The hiking trail leads you along the edge of the forest to the crossroads on the left and over the bridge over the wild Weißeritz. Now walk along the ridge path until you reach a narrow path on the left-hand side. This leads you uphill through the forest. At the top, the view widens again over Rehefeld and the surrounding mountain meadows. Continue to the old Teichstraße, cross the road and follow the path to Zaunhäuser Weg. Here you continue downhill to the left until you arrive back in the village on Talstraße. Now follow the Alter Schulweg back to the starting point.
