Teufelsmühle Viewpoint and Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

Very nice view once you have climbed up there. The climb is 3km long with a 10% average gradient and at the end it's up to 16%. So prepare for 20-25 minutes of relatively hard climbing.

Kreuzleh Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Great place to rest. Seating at the hut. Several large hiking maps for an overview. From here you can continue in all directions. E.g. to the Teufelsmühle, Dobel and very close to the Hohlohturm. 👌🏻

The cozy Grünhütte with a large terrace is accessible on foot or by bike. In winter, it is also possible to get there with cross-country skis. Authentic Swabian dishes are served on site at fair prices. The giant pancakes with blueberries are particularly well-known. In general, the portions are generous and therefore ideal for refueling. The magnificent floral decoration is particularly beautiful in summer.

Lehen-Hütte

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The special feature is the large rhizome of a silver fir, which is turned upside down as a table in the hut. Nice hut for a little break.

Here you are on the Graf-Rhena-Weg in the Albtal. The path is the classic path through the Albtal. It leads picturesquely along meadows through the Black Forest landscape. The path takes its name from the German diplomat Friedrich von Rhena.

Old town around Ettlingen Castle

Highlight • Historical Site

Ettlingen Castle is a baroque castle in the center of the Baden-Württemberg town of Ettlingen.
Today's castle had two, possibly three, previous buildings. After the Baden Margrave Hermann V was enfeoffed by Emperor Friedrich II with the town of Ettlingen, which was founded by the Hohenstaufens, his son Margrave Rudolf I of Baden built a castle complex in the middle of the 13th century - possibly on the remains of a previous Hohenstaufen building; However, a previous building has not yet been proven. The lower floors of the keep in the castle courtyard, which are still preserved today, date from this time.

A magnificent Renaissance castle followed in the 16th century. Two round corner towers were added to the south wing, and the keep was given a half-timbered upper floor. The three-wing Renaissance complex around the old keep, completed in 1600, was destroyed along with the entire city by French troops in the War of the Palatinate Succession in 1689.
