If you cross the old Jeetzel River, you'll get to the other side. It's okay to walk, but I'd prefer to drive a bit further, where you can easily cross over a road bridge.

There's a shelter in case it rains, or you can simply take a break there. Tables and benches are available.

A beautiful trail through dense deciduous forest, but many trees are dead up above! So be careful.
