The trail follows the Industrielehrpfad through the Zürcher Oberland, passing quiet highland plateaus, wooded ravines, and watercourses on the way to Neuthal, where a textile museum houses antique but still-functioning machines. On certain Sundays, a steam train winds through the hilly landscape alongside the route, and a rest stop with a fireplace awaits at the Rastplatz Fledermaus near the museum.
