Take the narrow footpath on from the castle, zigzagging uphill to join a broad track. Turn left and after only a short distance look out for a path to the right. This climbs up by a sandstone outcrop then rises, steeply at first, and emerges onto a vehicle track where the GR53 continues to the left.

Within minutes, leave by a footpath to the left, to reach a more major path. Follow this uphill to the right to Col de Hichtenbach, where there is a small shelter. Take the track left, signposted to Zigeunerfels, uphill to reach a crossroads. Go straight on, then leave the track by a substantial footpath to the right, signposted to Wasigenstein.
