The area surrounding the Waldseistrikt "Wilde Sau" had become the killing field of the Western Front after months of fighting. Regiments of three American divisions, the 9th, the 28th and the 4th, had fought here and suffered heavy casualties. The start is at the Wanderparkplatz Brandenburger Tor, which got its name from the large wild gate there.
