Description
The trail starts at the Berghotel Predigstuhl where there are also several parking spaces.
The path begins on the forest road behind the mountain hotel.
After a few hundred metres the path goes up very steeply on the right through the forest.
After a short time, the first steps or steel ropes also begin.
We continue on a forest path over a forest path to a saddle.
Some steel cables lead directly below the summit of the preaching chair.
A hiking trail brings us back down to a forest road at the back of the summit.
