Vom Löwengraben bei der Spreuerbrücke geht es gleich ziemlich steil hoch. Du folgst den Wegweiser zu den Türmen. Dann gehst du beim Schirmerturm die Treppen hoch zur Mauer. Dort hast du einen wunderschönen Panoramablick auf die Stadt. Du folgst der Mauer bis zum Ende der begehbaren Route und verlässt die Mauer beim Wachturm wiederum durch die steilen Treppen. Dann geht man zur Hintermusegg, zu den Tieren und folgt dem Weg Richtung Bramberg in die Stadt. Dort geht man durch die Hertensteinstrasse zum Ausgangspunkt zurück.
