Hiking
The Princely Park Inzigkofen with monastery, the impressive Devil's Bridge over the Höll Gorge and picturesque views of the floodplain landscape of the Danube - you will discover all of this on the Kloster-Felsenweg. It starts right on the banks of the Danube in Laiz, which you can also get to by bus from Sigmaringen train station. You cross the river and follow the dike wall towards Inzigkofen, never losing sight of the calm waters.
At the end of the wall, you hike on a gravel path to the Amalienfelsen junction. To reach the vantage point on the rock, you need a little detour. But it definitely pays off, because up there you have a magnificent view of the Danube loop flowing past below.
Back on the main path, it goes again briefly along the banks of the Danube, then sharp left in the direction of Inzigkofen Monastery. You cross the monastery area in order to descend a little later to the Teufelsbrücke mentioned above. According to legend, it was built by the devil himself in order to get a human soul from the Inzigkofen residents in return. But don't worry: that was a long time ago. You can take your time when crossing and a little later - at Känzele - enjoy the wonderful view of the Danube Valley.
This is exactly where you descend. First parallel to the banks of the Danube, then crossed the river again, you now always keep in the direction of Broken Gutenstein, a ruin that is worth exploring. Over the romantic Schmeietal, past the historic Gypsy Rock and finally once again delighted with a wonderful view from the Split Rock, you slowly but surely walk back to your starting point.

The monastery rock path has been accessible and open again since October 16, 2023. The area around “Gebrochen Gutenstein” is still closed due to the extreme storm damage. A diversion has been set up.
The Princely Park in Inzigkofen is open and accessible.
(As of: October 16, 23; 10 a.m.)
