Description

After walking north for a few minutes, you pass a small power station and come to the start of the path that runs through the Zimmerberg Gorge. The path leads along the stream for most of the way and comes to a rest area with a table and benches. The route leads over small bridges and up impressive wooden steps that zigzag along the cliff face before later crossing a 30-metre-long steel cable suspension bridge over the Griesbach. 

After a few metres, you’ll come to a wide forest road. From there, follow the signs towards Lehen. The route leads gently downhill and then branches off to the right into the forest. The path soon turns into a gravel road and then finally a paved road just before Lehen. Walk past the first houses and continue down into the valley towards the "Sonnensiedlung" district. At the fork in the road above the Sonnensiedlung district, turn right and continue straight on until you reach "Am Sonnenberg" a few minutes later. Once there, take a sharp left to head south and then turn onto the second side road. At the end of the side road, a small path leads back down to the starting point.
