Here we go: After the short, steep climb out, the Stoneman follows the Vierenstraße. The route turns off to the right before the small Olympic champion museum (14 Olympic champions) at the Sportbaude Waldeck. From the Hotel Jens Weißflog (3-time Olympic champion and Stoneman Miriquidi messenger), the forest paths tend to descend and soon run alongside the tracks of the narrow-gauge railroad built in 1897. From Niederschlag station, the Stoneman heads towards the Cranzahl dam. Shortly before the water, turn right, where the ascent to the 898-metre-high Bärenstein summit (basalt table mountain) with the accommodation house and the observation tower built in 1913 begins, which is quite steep towards the end.
