View over Entringen and the Ammertal from Schönbuchspitz

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the bench you have a gigantic view. Certainly this is even better in autumn when the visibility is clear. I saw Wurmlinger Kapelle and Hohenzollern today (in spring).

View of Schönbuchtrauf, Ammertal, and vineyards

Highlight • Viewpoint

Magnificent view over the vineyard slope towards Entringen. A short detour to the former Müneck ruins (about 250 meters above) is worthwhile.

Great premium path, the paths are sometimes graveled, sometimes they run over meadows with very little tar. Always great views of the Wurmlinger Chapel and the whole area. The paths …

On this beautiful autumn Saturday, we hiked a bit in the Schönbuch forest. First in the valley, then along the edge of the Schönbuch ridge. We found Müneck Castle and Hohenentringen Castle along the way.

In Entringen, we stopped for a bite to eat – almost all the wines on the menu came from the Brackenheim wine region.

The Schönbuch Nature Park is the largest contiguous 'green lung' in Central Württemberg and a popular local recreation area. This used to be the privileged hunting ground of …

July 26, 2022,Schönbuch, Runde vom Entringer Sportplatz

In the old homeland with two very good friends, we went for a walk along the Schönbuch eaves. The very beautiful paths, some with roots, some flat and sandy, always lead to beautiful vantage points. The view sweeps over the Ammertal to the Wurmlinger chapel, the Hohenzollern, the Plettenberg (unfortunately it doesn't come across on the cell phone).
Bypassing the …
