A wonderful view of Springiersbach and its monastery church invites you to linger.
At the next fork in the path, keep left to reach the Springiersbach farm. From here, you can already see the bell tower of the monastery church.
At the end of the route, turn left back towards Springiersbach and the starting point, the parking lot at the monastery church.
