Hiking

Group of boulders "Grauer Stein", which as a distinctive, natural waypoint was historically used as a border marker.

Hiking

The Graue Stein (Grey Stone) near Wiesensteig is an extraordinary collection of large limestone blocks, known for centuries as an imposing natural path and boundary marker. These boulders lie along an old hollow way, where a steep ascent from the Fils valley to the Swabian Jura plateau leads through a small rock gorge. Shortly after this bottleneck, the terrain opens up to a wide valley floor with gentle slopes, on which the mighty erratic boulders are scattered.

The path coming from the Filsursprung reaches the Hasental and the Alb plateau here. The last hundred meters it goes through a small rock breakthrough and the large stone blocks lying next to the path covered in moss.
