Here at the train station, the Trebgast Theaterweg begins. The approximately two-kilometer-long route leads via the market square (second stele) and Kulmbacher Straße (third stele) to the church entrance. After climbing the 141 sandstone steps, the hiker meets the fourth stele high above the Trebgast and Weißmaintal valleys at the Markgrafenkirche, on which Martin Luther is enthroned. At its end, at the Naturbühne, stands the fifth stele. It depicts not only the portraits of Don Camillo and Peppone, but also reliefs of the church and the town hall.

The Mistelbach cycle path is a central cycling connection in Bayreuth, linking the city center with the southwestern surroundings. It is considered one of the "established axes" in the city's cycle network. The path leads from the Bayreuth city center (near the Rotmain-Center) along the Mistelbach out of town towards the municipality of Mistelbach. It is part of the regional connection from Bayreuth to Hollfeld, which partly runs along a former railway line. The route is considered easy to moderate and is well suited for families due to only short uphill sections.
