The Breitenstein is a white Jura rock outcrop on the Albtrauf. It is a natural monument and protected geotope. In addition to the great view, the climb through the Eichhalde is also a beautiful experience.

Hike from Hepsisau up the beautiful Zipfelbach valley to the Mörikefelsen and to Auchtert. Then enjoy the view from Breitenstein with a glass of sparkling wine. The return route before Auchtert is steeply downhill in a zigzag back to Hepsisau.

After almost dancing the night away, that was a bit of a challenge... But a promise is a promise, Junior was looking forward to it.
