Nice hike with the kids. In Engelthal about halfway small playground for break. Shortly before the finish line there is a large playground.

The round starts in Engelthal, where the parking lot of the "Weißen Lamm" offers itself to park the car. From Engelthal it goes on the Mühlenweg through the Hammerbachtal to Henfenfeld.

The path leads uphill past Henfenfeld Castle and the route returns on forest paths towards Engelthal past a small bike park, an imposing oak and the former "Hustenburg".

At the end of the street you come …
