Hiking

The ladder to heaven goes up narrow steps from the city over the Schlossbergstrasse to Eseläcker and Turmrain. Goes strong in the legs.

Hiking

Direct, quite steep connecting path over unevenly sized steps from the Nagold up to the Schlossberg. It can get quite slippery here, especially after rainfall.

Hiking

Direct ascent to the converter. Currently, unfortunately, quite heavily overgrown in sections. Not very well-kept staircase, is probably also little used.
