A breezy experience. It sways a bit up there, but it's worth it: the panoramic view is fantastic. I especially like the view across to the Pragsattel and out into the Neckar Valley. Please don't forget to drop in a one-euro donation. It's inexpensive and helps!

Stuttgart and its Killesberg. Anyone who hasn't been to the Höhenpark hasn't seen Stuttgart. The absolute highlight is the annual festival of lights with a final fireworks display. This year on July 7th, 2022
