It's sensationally beautiful. Be sure to go through the Bachtelspalt and do the 5-minute circular walk.

Bachtel–Unterbachweid Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Simple, beautiful flowing trail (S1, position S2) on a hiking trail from Bachtel through the forest to Unterbachweid. From there continue on the road or on forest paths to the Bachtelspalt.

Bachtel Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

Worthwhile goal - no matter what the season. There is a good restaurant upstairs and the view from the tower is breathtaking.

Bachtel Ranch

Highlight • Restaurant

"Western Style" panoramic restaurant with an American-style menu. Often visited by motorcyclists. Who likes. (Very good service during my visit!)
Alternative: all the way up to the Bachtel, where there is a restaurant next to the observation tower.
