Hiking

Numerous boundary stones from 1790 remind us that this was the border between the then margraviate of Baden and the Archduchy of Austria, to which large parts of the Breisgau belonged under the collective name of Vorderösterreich. Today there is still an administrative border here: between the districts of Lörrach and Freiburg-Hochschwarzwald.

Across the summit runs a chain of these beautiful stones from the 17th century… Each one is worth a photo.

Hiking

A chain of well-preserved boundary stones from 1790 leads over the summit of the Belchen. At the time, these marked the border between the Habsburg region of Anterior Austria in the north and the Margraviate of Baden in the south of the mountain.
