Zwistmühle.

At first you walk around the foot of the Kahler Asten and go through extensive forests and beautiful forest roads towards the hamlet of Mollseifen. In Mollseiffen we follow the banks of the Odeborn and reach the Zwistmühle, a very beautiful watermill with a house. This is also the farthest point of the route. We now go through the woods towards Langewiese and follow the famous Rothaarsteig towards Kahler Asten. At the top of the Kahler Asten there is a weather station and a watchtower. You can relax here in the cafeteria and enjoy the beautiful view of the high heath. From the top it is a short distance to the starting point.
