(S/E) The route starts from the car park of the small supermarket at the entrance to Seelbach. Cross Road 102 and the roundabout to take Reichenbacher Weg for just under 100 metres, then turn left at the junction onto Hocherichtstrasse and follow it for 150 metres.
(1) Take the first right onto Am Wachtbühl and continue along this road, passing four junctions.
(2) At the fifth junction, turn left and leave the village, continuing straight on along the small road Steinbächle.
(3) At the end of this road, continue straight on along Alte Landstrasse and follow it to the large junction with the main road (415) situated on a small pass.
(4) Cross carefully towards the small Rebberg road, passing a car park on your right.
(5) At the three-way junction, turn right onto Schlossberg road, which goes round the ruins on the right and leads to a crossroads.
(6) Turn left and continue uphill to the hamlet of Burg Hohengeroldseck. In the hamlet, turn left and follow the signposted path to reach the castle and its enclosure. The visit can begin with a short walk around the grassy moat, followed by a climb up through the secured ruins (please observe the posted instructions and regulations).
After the visit, head back down the same path towards the hamlet and then the crossroads.
(6) Turn left and follow the road that winds down the other side, skirting the ruins.
(5) Continue straight down towards the pass you crossed on the way up.
(4) From the pass, the return journey follows the same route, all downhill to the village of Seelbach.
Follow the same streets as on the way out in turn: Steinbächle, Am Wachtbuhl, Hocherichtstrasse and Reichenbacher Weg, to return to the roundabout at the start and the car park (S/E).
