Kohlseite - around the Sinzelieth - Kuckelsberg

The path leads towards Herrmannsberg, through the Kohlseite, once around the Sinzelieth and over the Kuckelsberg back to Rattlar.

The residents of Rattlar are themselves passionate hikers and offer their guests guided tours, well-maintained hiking trails, a water treading pool for health and well-being, and a children's playground for the little ones. Dedicated members of the tourist association ensure the appearance and equipment of the shelter and barbecue hut, and ensure that the numerous holiday benches remain comfortable and attractive.
