Now we walk along the paved road for a little while until we reach a grass path on our left. We follow this path until we reach a small wooden cabin. We turn left onto another grass path and follow it past the playground to the St. Antonius chapel. Once we reach the chapel we keep right and walk along the gravel path back of the St. Anna medical center back down to the main road and follow it to the “Häfner´s Flair Hotel Adlerbad”.
