June 23, 2025,Traufgang "Ochsenbergtour"
What a beautiful walk! 10 kilometers that will make any hiker's heart beat faster—at least, that's how we felt. 😏💕 Heathlands, shady forest paths, the approximately 40-meter-long prehistoric Heidenstein Cave, the Alpenblick rest area and other viewpoints, and the Mehlbaum nature reserve, dotted with orchids, make this tour a pure hiking pleasure. 🪻🐑

Today we hiked the Traufgang Ochsenbergtour. The path is signposted in both directions. After we had already hiked the loop with Moni on July 18th, 21, we turned the tour around today and walked in the opposite direction. The path is very well signposted in both directions, so you can just follow the signs and don't need Komoot navigation.

A beautiful and varied tour through forest and juniper meadows with many break benches and wonderful views. And after a little more than half, you automatically end up in the Ochsenberg mountain restaurant. An ideal place to stop for refreshments with a large children's playground, which can also be reached by car. Probably not recommended at the weekend 😊, but …

Today we went to the last eaves that was still open on my hiking list. From the Kälberwiese car park first on the beautiful Schnecklesfels with a great view if it hadn't been so cloudy. Passing the 40 meter deep Heidenstein Cave, which was already inhabited thousands of years ago, it goes through the forest and past meadows. Beautiful rosehip …

Today a relaxing round of connoisseurs in spring temperatures.

We write 01/01/2022! And it's 12 degrees, 20 degrees felt in the sun. It could also be May. The year starts well ..... 🌞👌👍
or do we get the bill late on Easter with snow showers? 😱
Anyway, today it was time to enjoy.

Today (4th day of our hiking week on the Albtrauf) we hiked the Traufgang Ochsenbergtour. It has a direct feeder path right from the campsite „Sonnencamping Albstadt“ – so straight out of the tent and onto the path. On the feeder path, you manage 112 vertical meters over a distance of 900 m, until you hit the Traufgang just below …

On the first day of vacation I started a tour in beautiful weather. I started at the Kälberwiese car park. Most of the time it is narrow paths that lead you. With wonderful views of Albstadt and of course beautiful flower meadows. The Schnecklesfels used to be a Celtic settlement. The Heidenstein Cave is great for children. (As bats have …

This late autumn forest is simply indescribable in its blaze of color! It doesn't need sunshine to make it shine. It rained on the second half of the tour, the air is clear and fresh. There are very few hikers on the way. But we got into the middle of a mountain bike race. But there is enough space on …
