Circular hiking trail Gabelweihe

Short Description

Shepherds Gate-Heberkreuz-Trumpeter-Forest Edge Path Black Wood-Shepherds Gate

This circular route is probably one of the most popular paths around the fields of the monastery estate. Ideal for jogging, walking, hiking, or walking the dog.

Description

The Shepherds Gate at the edge of the village towards Rhüden is a good starting point. We start at the Shepherds Gate uphill along the Heber slope, past the Heberkreuz to the Trumpeter. Here we turn left, parallel to the edge of the forest, cross the L466, and then reach the playground with a hiking sign in a northerly direction. A rest in or in front of the shelter is recommended. Here you can barbecue, but only after prior registration with the municipal administration. We continue on a pergola-like forest edge path which later becomes a forest edge grass path with a beautiful view of Lamspringe. Rest benches invite you to linger. In parallel to the main road, we reach our starting point at the Shepherds Gate.

The circular route can easily be extended, for example over the Heberberg and parts of the monastery hiking trail.
