The Hohle Stein is a half-cave between Laichingen and Feldstetten in the Swabian Alb. It is located on the northern slope of the Hagsbuch area, west of the ski lift. The hall, which is around 12 meters long and around 22 meters wide, was probably opened by a sinkhole, so it is the remains of a sinkhole.

The outdoor fitness park on the outskirts of the city was born out of the idea of doing something good for the population in the long term as part of a local credit institution's anniversary. The multi-generational park with robust fitness equipment is open to everyone free of charge.
