Hummelsberg Summit and Viewpoint

Highlight • Summit

In the Großer Heuberg natural area, just a few kilometers from Denkingen and in the middle of the Upper Danube Nature Park, is the 1,002 meter high Hummelsberg. The Hummelsberg belongs to the group of the so-called "10 thousand".

These are the highest elevations in the Swabian Jura. The view from here extends across the Albvorland to the Black Forest. The Hummelsberg is located directly on the Albsteig and is an ideal starting point for hiking tours to Dreifaltigkeitsberg, just 3.7 kilometers away, or to Lemberg, 7.3 kilometers away.

White Cross on the Kehlen

Highlight • Monument

Summit cross on the Kehlen, at 1,001 meters one of the "10 thousand in the region" Heuberg. The original cross was once erected by a returnee from the First World War, and has since been renewed again and again by his descendants. The current version glows at night.

European Watershed Danube–Rhine

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Rhine-Danube watershed cuts through southern Germany. In a north-easterly direction, it runs through the federal states of Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria as well as part of the Alps in Austria and Switzerland. The Rhine-Danube watershed has a special feature due to the seepage of the Danube near Immendingen: a large part of the water that seeps away there overcomes the watershed underground and emerges again after about twelve kilometers in the Aachtopf. As a result, part of the Danube water flows over the Radolfzeller Aach, which rises from the Aachtopf, into Lake Constance and thus flows into the Rhine.
