Küssende Sau Rock Formation

Highlight • Natural Monument

Millions of years ago, the waves of the primeval sea sloshed away. Coral lived in it. The fossilized remains of these creatures we see today as rocks - in the form of a kissing sow (or two kissing sows ?!)

Blaubeuren Hammer Forge

Highlight • Monument

On the terrace you sit right next to the Blautopf - when it's not full it's nice, but it can get very crowded.

March 21, 2025,Trails, Wüstenstaub und Kuchen - Tour di enduro con la figlia

A nice warm-up ride on the full suspension bike. Easy pedaling over Hochsträß to the bike park in Pappelau. This lovely little park leaves nothing to be desired for practice. Then off into the woods, confident that the hikers hadn't arrived yet. And so it was, and we were alone. After a steep descent from Schillerstein to Gerhausen, a calorie …
