Glastal Valley

Highlight • Gorge

Opportunity for a wonderful circular hike through the Glastal valley and back via the Schweiftal valley. The Schweiftal valley is worth a detour, especially because of its bright limestone cliffs.

Wimsener Cave

Highlight • Cave

THE WATER CAVE ON THE SWABIAN ALB
The natural monument known as the "Wimsen Cave" or "Friedrich Cave" is the only "active" water cave in Germany that can be navigated by boat.
The Wimsen Cave is always worth a visit. Whether for big or small, the Wimsen Cave is suitable for the whole family. The beautiful and unique natural landscape invites you to go hiking and leave everyday life behind for a moment. A water playground directly opposite the Bio-Gasthof Friedrichshöhle invites the little ones to play.

The hiking trail between Zwiefalten and the Wiemsener Cave is mostly very well developed and is therefore also suitable for strollers. It runs close to the Zwiefalter Ach. There is a lot to see, crystal clear water, rock formations and some rare birds, fish and beavers live here.
