From here you have the most beautiful view of Hohenzollern Castle – postcard motifs guaranteed. The Zeller Horn (913 meters high) is part of the Albtrauf, the north-west facing steep drop of the Swabian Jura.

To the Trauffelsen with a magnificent view of Burg Hohenzollern, over Hechingen, Boll and, with good visibility, even further, one reaches from the Raichbergturm. To the left one reaches the Zellerhorn, to the right one reaches the Hangenden Stein via a very varied section.

Hangender Stein Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Hangende Stein is located directly on the Albtrauf and offers a very beautiful view of the Schamental and towards Jungingen. The long-distance hiking trail Albsteig leads directly past this geological peculiarity. The Alb is crumbling here in slow motion and at some point the Hangende Stein will break off.

Hohenzollerngraben

Highlight • Gorge

The Hohenzollern Graben is a geological fault line that stretches from southwest Germany to Austria. It was created by tensions in the Earth's crust that led to shifts millions of years ago. The rift is particularly striking along the Swabian Alb, where it clearly shapes the landscape. Rock layers are exposed here that would otherwise remain hidden. The area is of great interest to geologists because it provides deeper insights into the development of Central Europe.

Today we went to the Zeller Horn ⛰️. Parked at the Zollersteighof (where you can get good food 🍟🥙🥩). First, we went to the Zeller Horn. Almost alone. Great view of Hohenzollern Castle. A little further on, there's another great view of the castle. We continued along the ridge and over root paths towards Raichberg 🗼. From the top, you …

Last lap on the Alb. Fed up with views. Eat, if you want, very tasty in the Nägelehaus am Raichberg. The Swabian region is worth it ... on foot or by bike.

On our way back from a family gathering in Reutlingen, we made a stop for a short hike on the Swabian Alb. I quickly adapted the Traufgang "Zollernburgpanorama" trail, which at 16 kilometers was too long for us today, and shortened the route to just under 6 kilometers. Nevertheless, we still managed to experience some of the fantastic highlights that …

Very nice round with many highlights and refreshment options

Small farewell round with a lot of prospects. A large part of the route belongs to the Zollernhof panorama eaves. However, it is less suitable for those suffering from ankle joints - lots of roots and a few steeper stretches.
The view from Zeller Horn, on the other hand, is terrific.

Always nice up there. Today the castle is surrounded by beautiful clouds and the bright blue sky. I was accompanied today by my daughter and son-in-law 😍👍
