Fohrenbühl Memorial House and Observation Tower

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The highest point on the Lauterbach hiking trail is the ideal resting place for a long break. With its restaurant and tower, it is also a visual eye-catcher and there is also a lot to learn on the planet trail.

Hiked the Lauterbacher Hochtalrunde in glorious autumn weather. The tour starts at the hiking car park at Mooswaldkopf. The memorial house is located at the top of the Fohrenbühl pass. It was built in 1905 by the Black Forest Association. Unfortunately, the restaurant and the 23m high tower are closed. The Württemberg/Baden border also runs here.
First, about 200m along …

Today on the Lauterbacher Hochtalrunde. A beautiful panoramic - round with magnificent views. The great ideas at the various drink stops were also simply brilliant. Today's hike is one of the absolute hiking highlights in 2022 for me.

Only 3 days after the last tour, I was again up here on the Lauterbacher Hochtalrunde with a nice companion on a special request.
That's why my comment is much shorter 😁 ... you can read everything you need to know in the description from three days ago.😂
I would still like to add a few small things: The drinks …

In bright sunshine we hiked the Lauterbacher Hochtalrunde (between Lauterbach near Schramberg and Kirnbach near Wolfach) on Pentecost Sunday. My absolute favorite round here in the area!
Always sooo beautiful, with peacefully grazing cattle in the pastures, wonderful, mostly natural paths through shady forests and over sun-drenched meadows, promising paths along the edge of the forest, many opportunities to rest, …

We start at the highest point of the tour, at the memorial house on the Fohrenbühl, and first walk downhill through dense forest.

A few meters lower, the wide Sulzbach valley stretches out before us, with incredible beauty. We walk along autumnal paths along the edge of the forest and are absolutely fascinated by the view that awaits us here.

Beautiful panoramic hike that I copied from Martina & Peter from Furtwangen. A lot was going on today because everyone wanted to go out again after the rain.
