Loop
From the parking lot at the end of Simonskall on the asphalt road in the direction of “Mestrenger Mühle.” Then turn right over the Kall up the path. At the rest area, keep right up the mountain, at the bend in the path there is a nice rest bench with a view. We continue past the rest area at the Schaumeiler up to the height of Schmidt. Here it goes down to the right at the rest bench along the cow pasture. Where you then go back into the forest is what is probably the best equipped refuge “Waldesruh”. After you walk a good bit over the wide hiking trail in the direction of Simonskall, you then continue down the single trail (very steep). Once at the bottom it goes past the mill to Simonskall, where you then stroll across the street back to the car. The route is marked “70 Simonskaller Weg” throughout.
