A beautiful path on the Schlossberg around the castle ruins. There are 10 information panels offering interesting facts about the forest. It's also a great opportunity to take a break during the climb. 😅😇

Hohennagold Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

Worth seeing ruin in a great panoramic position. From here you have a wonderful view over Nagoldtal and the city. When the weather is good, you can even see the Swabian Alb.

From May to October the pavilion is also hosted by Nagold clubs on weekends and public holidays. With cold drinks or coffee and cake you can strengthen yourself for the next stage.

Old tower

Highlight • Historical Site

The "Old Tower" on the corner of Marktstraße and Turmstraße is today the symbol of the city of Nagold. It is a remnant of the old city church "To Our Lady", which was built around 1360 as a chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary within the city walls and expanded in 1401 , provided with a tower and chancel and was probably elevated to the status of a parish church soon afterwards.

When the old church was demolished after the completion of the Johanneskirche in 1876/77, the church tower remained; characteristic is the double lantern in his helmet.

The ground plan of the old church can be seen from the paving of the pedestrian area at the foot of the "Old Tower".

Unfortunately there is not much sun at this time of year, but it is very nice to be in the forest again.
After starting at the cemetery, the Nature Friends House is on the right. A little further on, on the left, is the Magic Forest. Usually well visited and appreciated by younger people.
Down the valley, on the Jägersteig, …

You can park for free at the cemetery on the left. If you don't need a toilet (10 cents), a bench or water, you can drive 500m further towards the forest from the cemetery car park. There is a hiking car park there. The first long climb is completely in the forest and in the shade. The trail down to …

After a party and a night of drinking on New Year's Eve, we actually still had enough reserves for a brisk hike around half of Nagold :)
