The Blindbach stream accompanies the Buchenwaldweg up to the Öhlsitzmühle. Slightly ascending, we now reach the forest at Scheiterbichl (from here, it's 1 hour to Hengstberg in St. Martin-Karlsbach with a very good view). From here, it goes over the gravel ridge and the hamlet of Obernberg, descending again via the Windlucke towards Burgstaller Kogel, where paths 7 and 8 merge.
