The tour starts at the leisure park Salvenaland in Hopfgarten from where it leisurely leads along the river Kelchsauer Ache to Hörbrunn. Next to the youth hostel Hörbrunn, you can see the ruins of an old church which still remind of the times when glass had been produced in Hopfgarten.From there the trail continues uphill into the forest. This part of the tour requires a certain amount of fitness and stamina. It is rewarding though with absolute silence and stunning views.
Via Glantersberg, or more precisely, via the farms Kainrathen, Ober- and Unter- Fromegg, you reach the Engelsburg ruins. The tour continues in the direction of Elsbethen and from there along the Kelchsauer Ache back to Salvenaland.
