Park your car at N47° 50.730' E013° 47.243' and walk along the marked path until you reach N47° 50.683' E013° 46.564'. Follow the hikingpath until you reach Baalstein and later Geisswand to enjoy the extraodinary views over the lake.
After leaving the rocks behind advance to N47° 50.404' E013° 46.456'.
Follow the street until you reach N47° 49.906' E013° 45.934' the real start of the challenge. Don't forget if you loose the trail, watch out for yellow dots on trees.
After finding the cache at N47° 49.693' E013° 46.339' you can decide whether to head for "Grosser Sonnstein" or to follow my original idea to meet some Kleiner Sonnstein Tourists
N47° 49.738' E013° 46.849' enqueue yourself into the stream downwards to end a long and challenging hike.
