Only shortly after - approx. 100 m it goes right into the view tip: a short detour is worthwhile, because with the property of the Maluhof one has a marvelous view of the 2-Thermenregion Bad Waltersdorf.
After a short rest, return to the thermal road to the village pond of Wagerberg. Continue to Unterlimbach along a flat forest path. Arrived at the municipal office in Unterlimbach, turn right to the center of the village. There you go slightly downhill to a bridge. Crossing the bridge and turning left, you follow an asphalt path. To follow the edge of the forest to Oberlimbach, turn left and then right. Now you go slightly uphill to Wagerberg. In Wagerberg you cross a crossroads and enjoy the view over the 2-Thermenregion before you go downhill back to Bad Waltersdorf.

Tips when reporting an emergency – Answer these six WH questions: What happened? How many people are injured? Where did the accident happen (are there GPS coordinates)? Who is reporting the incident (callback number)? When did the accident happen? What is the weather like at the site of the incident?
Proper backpack packing makes many things easier: Pack heavy things first. The water bottle should always be within reach in a side pocket. All the things that are often needed, such as sunglasses, camera or hiking map, belong on top. An emergency kit, including blister plasters, belongs in every rucksack and it is always advisable to dress in layers.
