Very nice trail above the Nagoldtal. Ideal as an entrance to or exit from the Hohe Warte. Not entirely trivial, but doable. Also for experienced kids.

The signposted Black Forest Nordrandweg leads along here. In any case, it is nicer here than on the asphalt path next to it.

Unfortunately, you often find large stones, filled bottles or thick branches in the middle of the route, which are usually difficult to see when going downhill. The route is also still very marked by the logging work at the end of 2022.
