Guardian of Hohengundelfingen

Highlight • Natural Monument

Striking rock formation perched in front of the castle like a guard. With a little imagination you can even recognize a face ;-)

September 15, 2024,Lautertalrunde, Ruine Hohengundelfingen

Followed the round from komoot. Beautiful Lauterwasser for the four-legged friend. The first part of the round is on the Lautertal cycle path, so you always have to expect more or less fast 🚴‍♂️. Also often past houses. So the dog had to stay on the leash a lot. The ruins are very beautiful, and it's definitely great to enjoy …
