The Bärenstein with its magnificent panoramic view of the South Bohemian Vltava Lake, to the founder's village of Oberplan, to the entire Bohemian Forest area and, with a good distant view, to the Alps, the rock formations of Hochbuchet and Liebesfelsen with beautiful views, Michael's Spring with Kneipp basin are the highlights of this hike.

Marking: Yellow aluminium signs, also red-white-red colour marking on trees.
0 km You start the hike at the market place Aigen-Schlägl (600 metres altitude) in the Waldgasse. The trail leads north for a few hundred metres along the Höhenstraße. Branch off from the road into the forest path, past the mill wheel and on to the

1.8 km Michaelsquelle spring. The spring water comes directly in free flow from the spring. Below is a Kneipp basin. This treading massage pool is used for natural foot reflexology. (Attention: division of the Bärensteinrunde, the Waldsteig and the Mühltalblickweg!) Take trail no. 41, cross the asphalt road at the Bitterkapelle and walk along the forest path past the Räuberhöhle. Take the short detour to Liebesfelsen (a popular rendezvous and viewing spot since time immemorial) and back again. Continue uphill to the

3.7 km Hochbuchet, wonderful view into the valley. In the documents of the Schlägl monastery it is reported that large pilgrimages took place here between 1762 and 1775. Further uphill to

4.5 km to Grünwald (926 m). Grünwald used to be a pure woodchopper settlement. In Grünwald, turn left onto the asphalt road. After approx. 200 m turn off into the field path. Now continue slightly uphill on the forest road to the

6.0 km Bärenstein (1077 m) - wonderful view of the Vltava reservoir. The Bohemian Massif was formed 300 million years ago. Rainwater that seeped into the earth washed out underground fissures and caves, the decomposition of the granite blocks began, and the round woollen sack shapes were formed. Continue along the forest path moderately downhill to Grünwald. When you reach the car park, first turn right and after about 40 m turn left again. Continue along trail no. 41 until you reach the

8.2 km junction Bärensteinrunde "Aigen-Schlägl 3.3 km". Walking downhill on this forest path is also the Falkensteinerweg (110) back to

11,5 km Aigen-Schlägl.
