Go to the Schauenberg car park above Pfaffenheim.
(S/E) From the car park, take the path heading north and uphill, marked with a red ring and signposted Promenade Circulaire du Kukuckstein. After 20 minutes of climbing over uneven terrain, between sandstone rocks and gaps in the Alsace plain, you will arrive at Rocher du Coucou (Kukuckstein). At the foot of the village of Gueberschwihr.
(1) Leave the path that dips to the right and walk past a bench. 20 metres further on, at a fork, ignore the path that veers to the right (red diamond) and turn left, climbing slightly to reach a wide, relatively flat path after about 50 metres. Take this path to the right. At the bottom of a short descent, you will come to a crossroads with a wide path coming in from the right. Take it on the left and climb for about 50 metres before reaching an intersection.
(2) Leave the wide path and climb the trail on the right marked with a blue diamond. Cross a carriage road, then 10 metres further on, a trail marked with a red cross.
(3) Continue straight ahead on the blue diamond trail towards Heiliger Baum. Cross another wide forest path before arriving 5 minutes later at a crossroads at Heiliger Baum.
(4) Take the path marked with a red triangle (south-southeast) towards Rouffach at the red barrier.
(5) At the next crossroads, turn left, heading east, onto the path marked with a Blue Cross, towards Schauenberg. At a barrier, take a wide path on the right. 150 metres further on, at the bottom of a slight descent, turn left to join a wide path still marked with a Blue Cross. Stay on this downhill path, ignoring the paths coming from the left. Pass to the left of a small clearing and arrive at a junction with a path marked with a red cross.
(6) Don't miss it. Leave the main path downhill and turn right onto the path marked with a red cross towards Schauenberg. 15 minutes later, after passing above the car park, you will reach an intersection.
(7) Follow the Red Cross trail, which, a few metres further on, joins the wide path leading to Notre-Dame du Schauenberg.
(8) Enjoy the view from the terrace and perhaps take a tour.
Return to the previous intersection.
(7) Continue straight ahead for 200 metres, staying on the wide path lined with wooden statues until you reach (S/E).
