The route leads from the start to the forester's lodge "Kühlkopf" and to the pedestrian bridge over the B327, which is crossed. Then, about 100 meters after the bridge, turn right onto the "Layer Bergweg" (paved), direction Lay/Mosel. After about 1 km on the Layer field, leave the road that bends right there and continue straight on a forest path, which leads back to Remstecken in a 3 km loop. From the inn "Remstecken" along the paved road past a fish pond towards Kondertal, then shortly after the fish pond turn left onto a forest path to the "Hütte im Flürchen".
