View of the Seeburg Valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

From here you have a beautiful view of the Seetal and the opposite slopes. The small detour from the hiking trail is worthwhile.

June 3, 2023,Schwäbische Alb - Gräfensteige - Seeburgsteig
Today I felt like a lot of shade and variety while running. I found both here.
The route is a bit confusing, but once you get the hang of it, you'll find your way. Pretty tricky without Komoot. 😳
I recommend long clothes for this tour. Otherwise it's easy to find out where the nettles can burn.
The mountain hiking …

Sodele, now all 5 Grafensteige are finally over.
For me, the Seeburgsteig was not as interesting and varied as the other four.

With the Albverein Allmendingen we hiked the Treilfinger Gorge and the Seeburgsteig again in wonderful weather. We stopped in Hegen with a super roast venison

This morning/noon the 3rd Grafensteig, the Seeburgsteig, was on the agenda. After the 2 premium crates yesterday, we were less enthusiastic today. The section north of Seeburg was very nice, especially the benches with a view! You share the dusty path in the Trailfinger Gorge with countless mountain bikers...

Today I went to Bad Urach on the Seeburgsteig. From the car park in the center of the village, you enter the forest at Café Schlössle and first climb up in the direction of Stilles Weidentäle. Along the plateau you soon stand at the edge and have a wonderful view of Seeburg and the castle opposite and the war memorial. …
