August 12, 2021,Rundwanderung im Großen Lautertal zwischen Hundersingen und Weiler

The circular route offers the opportunity to hike the Grosse Lautertal from "above" and "below".

On the way there, which also runs on paved roads for longer stretches, there are wonderful views of the valley (way back). The top view is about 4 km from the "Bürzel" vantage point, just behind the Steighof. A sun lounger and two benches invite …

I saw the idea of the tour at @Annerose. Thank you for this.
Then I extended the tour a little bit.

August 13, 2022,Burgen und Ruinen Tour im Großen Lautertal

Today on foot in the Great Lautertal and initially surprised by the many people and full parking spaces everywhere. Well, I'm usually in this area during the week for biking.
Unfortunately, Derneck Castle is too early on our route, so we won't stop there today.
The way to the vantage point Bürzel is very nice on the last 500m, much …

Our first hike showed us some castles and castle ruins. We climbed three of them. The view was simply fantastic in this golden, sunny October weather.

May 28, 2022,Burg Derneck und Burg Hohengundelfingen🥾

Best hiking weather at 14 degrees 🌤, instead of Allgäu back to the Alb. This time to Lautertal, which I only know from 🏍. We started at the Burg Hohengundelfingen hiking car park. But we saved the castle for the end. Then it first went downhill to the Grosse Lauter, through Bichishausen and then towards Gundelfingen. Nice little villages. And …

October 6, 2024,Lautertal Bichishausen - Burg Hohengundelfingen / Darneck Burg

We're on the Alb again. We expected a lot more cyclists and hikers in the Lautertal... so it was a quiet, beautiful tour. The Hohengrundelfingen castle is impressive, it's definitely worth climbing up and enjoying the view. It's easy to imagine how the nobles used to be able to enjoy the beautiful view from their front garden.
