It is also excellent for hiking. Not so many mountain bikers have ridden here yet. So the paths are not yet very destroyed by the profile tires.

A good route; hiking poles are helpful on the ascent through the sea of rocks. Along the border stone, there are beautiful forest paths.

Along this path you walk along an old border. The boundary stones here date from the 16th to the 20th century, most from the end of the 18th century. The border that runs here is the one between the town of Murrhardt (two abbot's staffs) and forest farm property (ploughshare).
