    The Schäferbrunnen marks the entrance to the Schäfertal, a dry valley that can turn into a raging brook when the Danube floods. The fountain used to serve as a cattle trough for a long time, and the Grauental spring bubbling here was the drinking water supply for Böttingen. A nice resting place for cyclists and hikers!

    Nice place for a rest or for a barbecue.

    Beautiful place for a break! You are at the upper end of the valley here and can decide to continue further west from here.
