ways

The Spechtritzweg, also the main road to Spechtritz, runs from Rabenau through the forest until it leaves it in the Spechtritzgrund. The Mühlwege run from the Spechtritzweg through the forest to Oelsa and from Cottaplatz over the M-wing and the aisle 28 into the Spechtritzgrund. The aisle 28 goes from the Oelsaer Freilutwiese in the south of the forest through the forest over the Mühlwege and the Spechtritzweg like the M-wing to the northern edge of the forest. The M-wing begins on the eastern edge of the forest at Cottaplatz and ends above the Spechtritzgrund on the western edge of the heather. An old road, starting today on the Spechtritzweg, crosses the Mühlweg to Oelsa and ran as a ravine down to the Spechtritzgrund on the edge of the route of the valley.
