Viewpoint Kappler Wand

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the precipice of the Kappler Wand, you have a beautiful view towards Freiburg. It's also not far to the Schauinsland Tower, but it's quieter...

Schauinsland Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

Over 85 steps you reach the 22 meter high viewing platform of the Schauinsland Tower, actually called "Eugen-Keidel Tower". In good weather you can look into the Vosges and the Swiss Alps. The tower is always open.
