Yes, the trail is very beautiful, especially at this time of year. But please try to choose a more fitting name for the highlight! The current name is far too generic 🙂. I've posted a photo of myself. Hope that helps. Greetings, Micha 🖖

View of Blaubeuren from the Rock Outcrop

Highlight • Viewpoint

On the way to Rusenschloss you will find a first viewing rock very close to Sonderbuch with a great view of the Blautal and over Blaubeuren.
A little hidden behind a memorial to the fallen, a comfortable bench invites you to take a break.

Knoblauchfelsen Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great view of Blaubeuren. You should be sure-footed and free of vertigo if you want to climb the rock.

Little Grotto

Highlight • Cave

From the hiking trail, about 50 meters down the mountain, you will find a beautiful rock arch. On the side, steps carved into the rock lead to a cave that is open to the valley. Very impressive!
I am not aware of any Stone Age finds here. It is not mentioned in the museum in Blaubeuren either.
There is another grotto below the castle. About 100 to 200 meters from here (as of July 2020: closed).
You can NOT see the castle from this point.
