The route can be extended individually. In this case, the trail continues along the Grubsee lake to Klais (406). From here, the route always runs parallel to the main road back to Gasthof Barmsee (407).
Note the last section from Barmsee to Grubsee. Here you have to cover approx. 30 hm on a gravel road, which is unsuitable for pushchairs.
