Schlossberg Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view should be reason enough to climb the many stairs and hold your nose in the wind. A great view all the way to France.

December 28, 2025,Schlossberg-Entdeckertour im Nebel🤷🙄

Today we started our first tour in Freiburg. A discovery tour in the fog, unfortunately. The tour was still OK though. Lots of forest and quiet because of the weather. A stop at St. Ottilie was possible. We finished at the Martinsbräu brewery 🥩🍺😋.

September 9, 2024,Freiburg- Schloßberg - St. Ottilien

Nice tour, some of the pictures were taken with my Olympus camera, so the positional assignment is missing. Nice tour in changeable weather. Very beautiful with great views all the time.

I'm currently recording with Osmand, which I used before Komoot. It has some advantages for me when it comes to navigation.

April 30, 2023,Schwarzwaldverein Freiburg - Entdeckertour am Schloßberg

Today we were in a very nice group with our hiking guide Beatrice on the Schloßberg on a discovery tour. The Schloßberg has a very eventful history, almost everything that happened in the early days of Freiburg can be traced there, it was signposted with some new paths, which were equipped with explanatory boards and in some places with "Guckis" …

March 20, 2024,Entdecke den Freiburger Schlossberg-Rundtour mit tollen Ausblicken

Very nice, eventful round trip with great views. The route between Platz Fort Carree and St. Ottilien is a long climb. Very muddy during or after rain. Refreshments are possible at the St. Ottilien inn every day from 12 p.m. Climbing the observation tower is highly recommended. Comfortable and good hiking trails throughout the route. After or before the hike, …

January 17, 2023,Rundwanderung um den Schossberg, St. Ottilien - Schlossbergturm (Freiburg)

This round completely surprised me/us - in a good way!
The route runs mainly on beautiful paths, the rest on nice, natural paths.
Well, first, various paths lead up to the Rothütte.

Follow the "Kandelhöhenweg" and then the "Schokoladenweg" to the heights of St. Ottilien.
The way back to the Schloßberg is via a very nice path ("Bodenseequerweg") to the …

Finished work early today and walked from Wiehre over Schlossberg almost to Rosskopf. Saved the last few meters. Really great paths and hardly anything else going on.
