January 4, 2026,Altenbergturm – Aussicht auf den Altenbergturm Runde von Geifertshofen
A lovely half-day hike, which I can only recommend for late autumn and the winter months, because the route I took consists almost entirely of forest tracks and even some paved roads (e.g., between Altebergsee and Gerabronn).

I give the tour three stars out of five because the winter views near Hohenberg are simply magnificent.
