Felsenmeer (Sea of Rocks)

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Felsenmeer is, as the name suggests, a large collection of boulders that was formed during the Ice Age. Several paths lead through the nature reserve and allow you to look at the stones and also the vegetation up close.

Felsenmeer in the Heidelberg City Forest

Highlight • Natural Monument

Very beautiful sea of rocks on the slope above Schlierbach. A narrow path leads directly through the sea of rocks, and because of the lack of trees you also have a beautiful view of the Neckar valley.
Since this is a nature reserve, you should stay on the path and avoid climbing on the rocks.

Heidelberg Forest Adventure Trail (Walderlebnispfad)

Highlight • Trail

I don't think I've ever seen such a beautifully made adventure trail. A lot of love went into creating some really great stations. The Werkstatt gGmbH conjured up this beautiful forest path with craftsmanship and a lot of artistic sensitivity.

View of Heidelberg and the Rhine Valley from the Königstuhl

Highlight • Viewpoint

Heidelberg's local mountain. The mountain station of the Königstuhlbahn is right next door. Great distant view across the Rhine plain into the Palatinate.

View of Heidelberg from Naturpark Neckartal-Odenwald

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the 568 meter high Königstuhl you can enjoy a wonderful view over the Neckar valley, the Rhine plain and - when visibility is good - even as far as Alsace.

View of Heidelberg and the Neckar Valley from Königsstuhl

Highlight • Viewpoint

Pack your bike and head to the Königsstuhl in Heidelberg! The way up is sweaty, but the trails through the forest are just right for real mountain bike fans. Once you're at the top, you've more than earned the sunset: just chill out on the edge, enjoy the view of Heidelberg and the Neckar Valley and end the day with a great view. It's best to take a short break with a snack and a cold bottle - then it will be perfect. Then you can look forward to the descent, because the way down is at least as much fun as the way up!

October 14, 2021,Der Königstuhl – Felsenmeer Runde von Königstuhl

Nice tour to warm up in cool weather. The Wolfsbrunnen invites you to relax and finally a coffee at the mountain railway with a view over Heidelberg. The ascent to the Königsstuhl over the Felsenmeer is crisp but nice to walk.

The GPS reception left a lot to be desired on the tour.
Otherwise, the tour is really great, even in the hot weather it's always through the forest. We recommend!!?
