Directions
Your tour starts on Kirchweg at Schollach’s church. In earlier times, this route was often taken by the people of Schollach to get to Mass in Urach. You walk to the top and stay left. The path leads along the outskirts of the forest to Schollach’s Sommerberg. You continue in the direction of Rengethof, where you are dazzled by the fantastic view of Renget with ist ponds and solitary trees. Staying at the top, you walk towards the chapel called Judas-Thaddäus-Kapelle, located above the traditional Black Forest farm Oberengenbachhof. You walk to the Gasthaus Engel on Hochberg. You proceed via Hochschachen to Schneckenhof, the home of the world’s first ski lift. Taking the road, you head towards Jockenhof and stay left, bound for Unterengenbach. From here, you return to the church in Schollach.
