Directions

The short but very beautiful hike starts at the car park at the crane pond in Neuhof. From there, a wide forest path leads directly past the crane pond to stamp point 192. After about 300 meters further along the path, you reach a trail on the left from which you can view the gypsum karst landscape. After following this path for about 300 meters, the karst hiking trail leads past the upper crane pond and back to the forest path. After about 400 meters, you reach the starting point again.
