The varied and easy route, well suited for families and children, is continuously marked with the green diagonal stripe, the marking sign for nature trails and themed paths, and the yellow horizontal stripe. It leads from the starting point at the parking lot in Unterweißbach past the bowling alley up to the shelter at Pulverturmsweg. At 450 - 500 m elevation, several small brooks, such as the Cold Channel and the Wet Quelitz, cross the path before it reaches the Kämpf's Rest dam nearby, a small rock with a shelter. A detour to the Bielstein shelter offers a view over the reservoir. From Kämpf's Rest, the path leads downhill to the entrance of Unterweißbach at the foot of the dam. Passing the outdoor pool and further through the town, hikers reach their starting point in just over 2 hours.

It is definitely worth walking a little further downhill from Kämpf's Rest to enter the impressive dam and enjoy the view over the reservoir, as well as down to the foot of the dam.
