Schönberg is a district of the municipality of Kölbingen. At the top of the Schönberg and visible from afar stands the beautiful, Gothic parish church from 1494. Easy to reach by bike and many nice trails nearby.

After about 2.6 km we missed a junction and therefore took a small detour.

The starting point is the old church in Kolbingen (sufficient parking available). Went wrong twice at Brandscheid because the signpost was overgrown.
Take enough drinks with you for a sunny and warm day. There is little walking through shady areas.
Otherwise very well signposted.
Some fitness is required.
