From the car park on Gerichtsberg in Buchleiten, the hiking trail leads towards Ziegelwies. You then cross the Kohlaicherbach stream and reach a forest path secured by a barrier. This leads directly into the Sonnleithenwald forest.

After a short uphill section, you pass the Haselhofhütte. Continue along the forest path to Sonnleithen.

On the road via Vornbuch to Hirschleiten, we cross the Kohlaicherbach stream once again. In Hirschleiten, the route climbs again to the Hamisch Gatterl cultural monument. The history of the cultural monument and the view invite you to linger.

The car park on the Gerichtsberg in Buchleiten can be reached directly from the Hamisch Gatterl by following the Höhenstraße.

Tip: Don't miss the turn-off towards Hirschleiten to get to the Hamisch Gatterl.
