Location & Access The heathlands near Albstadt-Lautlingen are located along the Albtrauf (Alb River) and are accessible via well-marked hiking trails. The "Wacholderhöhe" trail is particularly recommended, leading you directly through this landscape – including viewpoints such as the Leimenfels (Leimen Rock) and the Sandlöcher (Sand Holes).

The trail is located in the Zollernalb district of Baden-Württemberg, specifically around Albstadt. It is embedded in the charming landscape of the Swabian Alb Geopark, which not only provides sporting action but also great views.
