The hiking route starts near the Chapel Rotmoos, which was built in 1947/48. At Haselegg, you come across a wayside chapel that is said to go back to a \"Sträggelen\" legend.

The hiking route starts near the Chapel Rotmoos, which was built in 1947/48. At Haselegg, you come across a wayside chapel that is said to go back to a "Sträggelen" legend.
