Dorfprozelten: Kollenburg-Chapel-Route

You follow the "D1" marker to the Steingasse signpost and from there steeply uphill on the Franconian Marian Way. Once you reach the top (signpost), turn left and walk above the stone bridge towards the west. Here there is a small side path that leads to the viewpoint "Heimatblick". The Franconian Marian Way then leads you steeply downhill over switchbacks to a valley notch and back up to the ruins of Kollenburg.

Here you look for the castle entrance and find the path "C2" there. This leads you steeply but picturesquely along the edge of the forest.

At the Fechenberg signpost, follow the "D2" signage until you reach a shelter. At the signpost, turn right onto the "D1". If you see wooden boards marked "Chapel", you are on the right path. From now on, it gently goes downhill until you reach the junction "D3". Here there is the option to make a short visit to the old war memorial chapel. Follow the "D3" here until you meet the "D1" again. Alternatively, you can go back to the "D1" path and take the "Way of the Cross". In the valley, the "D1" marking leads you back to the car park.
