View from Sonnenfels over the Ermstal to Hohenneuffen

Due to its exposed location, you have a great almost 180° view. Otherwise, everything here is wooded and you can hardly see anything. This makes this viewpoint something very special.

The Hell Holes are just a super great hiking tour.
The view from the Sonnenfelds and Olgafels was fantastic in this beautiful autumn weather.

Nice tour; I ran it the other way around and shortened it a bit - that made the ascent through the forest much more pleasant in the heat. From the top you have a mega view; from both the Sonnenfels and the Olgafels - the tour is worth it for that alone!
