Gehrenberg Landslide

Highlight (Segment) • Natural Monument

An impressive example of erosion. Over 100 years ago, a landslide created a 50-meter-deep, almost vertical cliff here.

October 10, 2021,PWW GuckinsLand, Runde am Gehrenberg

The premium hiking trail GuckinsLand was on the plan today. The start was on the cool, foggy morning at the Fürstenbergweg parking lot. We saved ourselves the ascent to the tower, since no view was to be expected. And at the Möggenweiler parking lot we actually took the wrong turn - chatted too much, not paying attention. And because turning …

A full circuit of the Gehrenberg. From the Gehrenberg Tower, the Gehrenberg Slide, to the 5-Country Viewpoint. A truly beautiful tour with panoramic views (weather permitting 😉) along forest paths and meadows.

Second of three "Lake Constance shore leave".
The title "Premium Hiking Trail" is absolutely justified. Great signposted path. Getting lost, even without navigation, is hardly possible. Paths well prepared and great to walk.
The name "Look into the country" is also justified. Again and again wonderful wide views of the surroundings of Lake Constance but also of the lake itself. …

"Three-country Alpine view - that's the pinnacle!"

After just a few meters, the hiker passes a structure of a very special kind: a historic water reservoir built in 1903/1904.
The ascent continues along forest paths and trails until the 30-meter-high Gehrenberg Tower is soon reached. Built in 1903 as the "Grand Duke Friedrich Lookout," this tower still delights visitors today …

Today I did a really nice tour close to home. The round led on narrow paths and on forest and meadow paths once around the Gehrenberg. Highly recommended and a nice start into the long weekend for me today 😊
