there are several ways up to Mercury. This is also called "Merkurstrasse". For me the most relaxed way to the top.

Luisenbrunnen

Highlight • Natural Monument

Those who arrive here from the Murgtal via the narrow, steep path will be very happy about the cooling water of the fountain. The namesake was the grand dukes Friedrich and Luise of Prussia.

S0 and nice to drive.

Some parts of the trail are almost overgrown in summer. Nettles and thorns. So take care....

One of the largest outdoor pools in the area, then converted to a natural pool (the largest in southern Germany), destroyed by floods in 2016.
Currently rebuilding to a bath with natural and dry cleaning.
Hopefully opening in 2022!
