January 6, 2025,🍃Vom Winde verweht – HOCHGEHBERGE / Hohenneuffen Schwäbischen Alb

We were really lucky with the weather ☀️ - When we started, it was still cloudy and very, very windy. The wind stayed, but the sun came out. And then 100m before we reached the campsite, it started to rain heavily - what more could you want 😊
Great hike around Hohenneuffen with beautiful viewpoints, great oak trees and also …

Glorious weather had been announced on the weather map. What could be nicer than choosing a tour with potential distant views. In the "still to be done" filing, the Hochgehbergeweg "pressed up" quickly found itself around Hohenneuffen Castle. This was quickly included in the planning, the direction of the route changed and off we went. So actually go. The quickest …

November 27, 2022,HOCHGEHBERGE - Tour "hochgehkeltert" - Premiumwanderweg in Neuffen

Hello Hello,
Today I walked the "Hochgehkeltert" tour from the HOCHGEHBERGEN.
And it came as I feared: after just a few meters, the road was blocked due to Logging work 🙊. So I followed the diversion (at least one was signposted to the castle; it's not a matter of course either 😉) - but not quite. After a short time, …

April 26, 2024,Burg 🏰 Hohenneuffen umrundet

A nice walk around the castle 🏰 Hohenneufen. Some sections are quite steep. The rain before made it a bit slippery.
Very nice, also good to walk in summer - with lots of shade. We stopped at the castle and had a good meal 👍
