Joke trail "Gäg Wäg"

After the hike, you can fortify yourself with a snack or other delicacies at Gasthaus Ahorn.

The trail is divided into two routes:

1st route = suitable for baby carriages (on paved or tarred paths)

8 Gäg stations

Approx. 2 km (approx. 45 min)

Starting point is at the Platzberg (barbecue and playground) in Schwärzenbach. From there, follow the path towards the village center, past the Cafè Feldbergblick, to the Thomilishäusle. Here you turn left onto the hiking route and after a short climb you reach the plateau. Continue along the high trail to the Russenkreuz cross at the hiking parking lot, where you turn left and return to the starting point.

2nd route = backpack required (partly unpaved paths)

20 Gäg stations

Approx. 5 km (1.5 - 2 hours)

As far as the Russenkreuz cross at the hiking parking lot on the plateau, the route is the same as route 1, but you go straight ahead, following the Förster-Dinger-Weg, past the ski hut, through a section of forest to the Hellewanderkapelle chapel. Shortly after the chapel, continue left until you leave the forest above the Haberjockelshof. Here the route runs left along the edge of the forest on a narrower path until you reach the aforementioned ski hut again. Now all you have to do is walk to the Russenkreuz, turn right and you will be back at the starting point.

We recommend sturdy shoes! The right-hand loop, past Café Feldbergblick, is suitable for baby carriages. A back carrier is required for the left loop.
