Flascherlzug. Bahnhofstraße leads you into Langwiesenbachgasse. Follow this first to the left and then to the right to a forest path. After a cooling section in the forest, take Lasselsdorferstraße to the left and immediately turn right again towards Graschuh. You cross a settlement lane and at the end of the road you walk to the left and after crossing the stream to the right in the direction of the sewage treatment plant.
