This extraordinary trail is a spiritual and historical circular hiking and pilgrimage trail.

The short circular trail in the south-east of Istrup leads over the Löwenberg and through the Totengrund and Bornegrund. The trail invites you to pause at several stations, learn about the historical content and enjoy the beautiful panoramic views.

Multiple wayside crosses and church buildings add to the pilgrimage spirit of the trail.
