Our hike begins in Kindberg’s town center, heading east. We cross the pedestrian crossing, pass through the archway, and follow Schlossallee, continuing under the motorway and between the swimming pool and Möstlingbach.
We reach the Teufelsfelsen, where we find the first information board. Following the Rosegger Weg, we arrive at the second information board and continue uphill, passing the Pulverturm and along a forest path to the waterworks.
