The hike starts at the "Brandenburger Tor" parking lot in Hürtgenwald. Follow the Eifelverein's trail marker 05 along the Hürtgenbach towards the southern tip of the Wehebach dam. However, turn off here at Gressenicher Weg and continue in the direction of "Rote Wehe". Follow the course of the stream to the junction with "Alte Zweifaller Straße" and turn left into the forest in the direction of the "Weiße Wehe" stream to get back to the starting point.
