The start and end point of the hike is the street "Im Tiergarten." After just a few meters of walking, you reach the Nell winery. Here, as well as in neighboring wineries in Olewig, you have the opportunity to take a guided tour of the estate's wine cellar followed by a wine tasting.
You pass the winery on your right. Following hiking trail T 11, you proceed along the Tiergarten stream, which you will need to cross later. On the other side of the stream, keep right and follow the path slowly uphill through some hairpin bends in the forest. Upon reaching the top, go right over a lightly trafficked road connecting the Trier district of Mariahof with Kernscheid, then downhill and later uphill again until you reach the Brubacher Hof.
Shortly after (at the height of a small chapel) keep right and hike between fields and later through the forest via trail T 11 back into the Tiergartental, the starting point of this hike.
