The roundwalk is about 3,5 km, depending from where you start. You can park your car on the sides of the two streets that run along the west or east of the gravel plant, as they come off the Gochsheimer Landstraße, and walk from there. These are located on the map.
With public transport, one can take the Number 11 bus from Schweinfurt Hauptbahnhof to Grf. Hauptstraße stop, and walk approx. 25min from there to the lookout tower.
Be aware that after rain the paths can be a bit muddy.
