View of the Lämmerstein

Highlight • Viewpoint

An unusual sight in the area: The Lämmerstein is crowned by a summit cross, which can also be seen from down here. A trail leads up from the other side.

Glastal Valley

Highlight • Gorge

Opportunity for a wonderful circular hike through the Glastal valley and back via the Schweiftal valley. The Schweiftal valley is worth a detour, especially because of its bright limestone cliffs.
