Von der Volksschule aus führt der Weg in Richtung Offenburger Straße und weiter nach Oberkurzheim. Die Naturstraße schlängelt sich vorbei an der gemütlichen Jausenstation “Offenburger Bergbauernstube”. An einer Gabelung biegt man rechts ab und begibt sich zur Ruine Offenburg. Die Überreste dieser historischen Stätte sind ein faszinierendes Zeugnis vergangener Zeiten. Nachdem man die Ruine passiert hat, setzt man den Weg fort bis zum ehemaligen Hof Schachmoar, wo man links abbiegt. Die Forststraße führt einen schließlich zurück zum Ausgangspunkt dieser malerischen Wanderung.
Die Ruine Offenburg erzählt stumme Geschichten von längst vergangenen Tagen, während der Hof Schachmoar mit seiner rustikalen Schönheit und dem Hauch von Nostalgie die Fantasie beflügelt. Die Forststraße bietet einen angenehmen Rückweg, umgeben von dichtem Grün und dem beruhigenden Rauschen der Bäume.
Diese Route ist nicht nur ein Spaziergang durch die Natur, sondern auch eine Reise in die Vergangenheit. Ein perfekter Ausflug für Geschichtsinteressierte und Naturliebhaber gleichermaßen.
