Steps on the Botanischer Weg

Highlight • Trail

The so-called alpine irons make the ascent easier. But once at the top, it's uphill if you want to hike in the direction of knowledge. A certain level of fitness should therefore be in place for this section of the trail.

View of Oberhövels and Steckenstein

Highlight • Viewpoint

Always worth a walk.

You can sit quietly and relax on the benches up here if you want to take a quick breather after a long walk.

There are various hiking trails above Oberhövels, for example to Mühlenthal or Katzwinkel.
