View of Altensteig Old Town from Picnic Area

Highlight • Viewpoint

From this recreation area, you have a fantastic view of Altensteig's old town – numerous half-timbered houses and, above all, the Old Castle are clearly visible. The recreation area was initiated by the Black Forest Association.

We used the sky lounger for a long break. It stands on the edge of the juniper heath with a beautiful view towards Egenhausen.

August 23, 2023,Altensteig 🙋‍♂️- 🌞🌳🦋🌲Altensteiger Natur-Erlebnis-Pfad🌲🦋🌳🌞
I was inspired to this tour by Günter L.S., Birgit and Guido R.

🌞 Due to the trendy 🥵 temperatures, this tour was pleasant to go through a lot of shade.
It started at 🌞19° and in the end it was only 🌞25°

Beautiful hike through forests that are partly completely untouched. From Altensteig, the route goes partly up stairs and later through a mythical dark forest up to the plateau near Egenhausen. Then back down to the Börbach and along this on a small, quaint path. Then back up to the Egenhäuser Kapf and through the forest past Walddorf back down into …
