Equipment

Good equipment is essential for your hike. The following items should definitely be in your rucksack: - Food and drink - Functional clothing for rain, wind and cold - A change of clothes - Sun protection - First aid kit - Mobile phone with a full battery (Euro emergency number 112) - Hiking map or GPS - Hiking poles Nevertheless, the following applies: light luggage is also easier to carry, so you should not weigh down your rucksack with unnecessary ballast. In addition, your hiking equipment should of course also be adapted to your particular hiking tour.

Description

Your hike begins at the parking lot at the sports field and you walk towards the suspension bridge.
Cross this and then turn left towards Feldele, continuing past the beautiful forester's lodge to the Schwarzwasserbrücke bridge. Now your forest path leads up in hairpin bends to the "Unsere Herren" hill and
continue comfortably along the easy hiking trail to the 3rd fork "Siglseen". The path now leads you uphill through the shady mixed forest. For the last section, descend along the wide forest path until you reach the Siglseen lakes.
