A themed trail run by the Bavarian State Forests to get to know the mountain forest and its use - by e-bike or on foot from Ettal Monastery to Linderhof Castle!
Seven large-format wooden frames, placed along the route along the side of the path, draw the visitor's eye to characteristic features of the forest and forest use. The range of topics ranges from forestry, nature conservation and hunting to wood utilization in the form of shingles, lumber and the production of charcoal.

Directions
The tour starts at Ettal Monastery. To start the tour, we have to follow the hiking signs in the direction of Graswang or Linderhof. We leave Ettal and walk away from traffic towards Graswang. We always stay at the edge of the forest and cross the road at the Ettaler Mühle not! In winter, participants in the King Ludwig Run run along the same route. We follow the path to Graswang. Shortly before Graswang, turn left before a stone bridge and continue following the road. Now we go a little longer through the shady forests, which offers real refreshment in the summer heat, until we reach a dry stream bed. Here we have to turn right and continue following the path. We cross the stream bed on a bridge on the state road! Continue following the signs towards Linderhof. Shortly before Linderhof Castle we have to cross the street and we have reached our destination!
To get back to Ettal you can take the same route. But there are also other options such as the Sonnenweg to Graswang and then continue following the signs towards Ettal.
safety instructions
The path is used by hikers and cyclists. Please be considerate of each other!
