Butterfly Valley (Tiefental)

Highlight • Gorge

De facto the deep valley in the upper section. Especially here you can observe numerous insects, especially butterflies, in the appropriate season. A reason to just take the gas out (downhill at least ;-)) and pause.

A wonderful tour, here and there a small single trail, also an S 5 was there (up to Schelklingen Castle)
I modified the tour a bit and discovered a few nice trails.
On the way there were a few opportunities to stop off or to lick a cool ice cream. (Ice cream parlor Schelklingen)
