Directions

Start at the Steinegg village square and follow path 2B past Café Christl, turn left at Hotel Oberwirt and follow path 2B via Pstosser Bühl to the barn in front of the capel "Zum Weißen Bild". Turn left here onto the Path of the Pyramids. 3 wooden pyramids are the signposts. You reach the Katzenbach gorge, cross it and come on an adventurous trail in the Glirgerwiese, after this begins the Lahnweg with its bridges. In the lanes you are directly below the earth pyramids and can observe the formation of the earth cones. Continue to the Raffeinerhof and on the tarred road towards Heiglerhof. Before this branches off to the right a path with the marking no.2. This leads slightly uphill past the Dosserhof to the main street.
Continue on to the Dosser-Kreuz, from where you descend directly to the earth pyramids and to the viewing platform. The path continues, past the pyramids, to the Glirgerkreuz and over the Katzenbachweg back to the chapel "Zum Weißen Bild" and the village Steinegg|Collepietra.
