    Hiking

    Great panoramic view of the former meteorite crater.

    The Burgstall is a small but very distinctive and impressive part of the Meteor crater rim in the Steinheim Basin.
    The Albschäferweg also leads across it.


    Especially in spring you will find a very diverse, almost alpine vegetation.

    Apparently the name can be traced back to a hilltop castle (Burg Michelstein, around 1100)....

    The Burgstall is located in Sontheim im Stubental, a district of Steinheim in the district of Heidenheim.

    Hiking

    Here it goes steeply uphill, at the top there is a table with benches and a great all-round view
