Peace linden at the Schwanner Warte

Highlight • Natural Monument

There is a small rest area with a fountain near the Schwanner Warte.

Schwanner Watchtower

Highlight • Viewpoint

On the first stage of the Westweg, the Schwanner Warte on the northern edge of the Black Forest, after the Neuenburger Castle, with its panoramic view is one of the few highlights before Dobel. Taking a break is therefore a must. From here you have a beautiful view over the hilly landscape with meadows and fields north of the Black Forest.

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Small shelter as a shelter in a rain shower or as a place to have a snack. There is a large bench in the hut. Unfortunately there is no view here.

It was a very pleasant run, with plenty of shade but a few tough climbs 💪. A great place to stop for a break at the Waldenburg ruins.
