With the Reussenstein ruins in the foreground, it's a very beautiful picture. And when it's quiet, you can hear the rushing of the river in the valley from above.

Very nice barbecue area with a view of the castle. In summer, the view of the castle can be limited by the foliage on the trees.

July 23, 2024,Schwäb. Alb: Wiesensteig: Löwenpfad Filsursprung-Runde ⭐️⭐️
No appointments in the calendar, the weather forecast is acceptable, the ailments are modest - so I quickly look for accommodation and head off to the Swabian Alb again!
On the day of arrival I take one of the lion trails under my feet:

The hike begins at the Papiermühle car park (2 hours 3€, 24 hours 5€). First …

Lion Trails 10/16 ✔️

For a Lion Trail, you walk a bit too much on wide forest paths, but there are a few single …

Today I did this 🦁 path. It's a really nice tour with the Reußenstein ruins and the Schertelshöle but also very muddy paths 🐷 You can see it again here in the 3D video: relive.cc/view/vLqe2P258dv

Even sunny in places, but still bitterly cold, today I enjoyed one of the most beautiful lion trails for me. I have been here so many times and I am always delighted by the great views, the spectacular Reußenstein, beautiful forest paths and the source of the Fils. I actually had it all to myself today, as well as the …

Wonderful hiking tour with fantastic views from the Albtrauf. Beautiful valleys, varied forests. Barbecue area at the Filsursprung.

A beautiful tour in two districts (Göppingen and Esslingen) along the young Fils to its source, through the Autal and to the Reußenstein castle ruins. An idyllic feast for the eyes in spring. 😄
