Most of this hike is actually quite leisurely. Only towards the end is the ascent to Schachenberg really tough: a narrow path leads steeply up the slope and demands a head for heights and surefootedness of its hikers. You can look forward to the fantastic view from above.

Here you stand on the former border between the territories of Württemberg and Fürstenberg. At the bank you can take a break from hiking and enjoy the lovely landscape.

From Bichishausen, behind the former poor house, a narrow, small hiking trail leads up the steep ridge of the Schachenberg. The short but steep climb is definitely worth the view. 👍

Hochgehberge 5/22 ✔️

After the fantastic Burgfelsenpfad (castle rock path), I drove about 20 minutes to this Hochgehberg, as both tours are only a good 6 km long and can easily be done in one day.
Hochgehgrenzen (high-altitude hike) starts off very inconspicuously, walking past meadows and fields, through a stretch of forest and the Lange Tal (long valley).
Then …

On this premium hiking trail we cross the border that used to separate Württemberg from Fürstenberg.
Also the border between the beautiful biosphere area Swabian Alb and the Alb-Donau-Kreis.
We experience picturesque views of the Alb plateau, the juniper heath or the Schachenblick over Bichishausen.
It's only a little way through the forest - otherwise we were exposed to an …

Today I wanted to do a little walk on my day off. The start was bumpy🙈. Since the roads were quite slippery, I didn't set off for the hike until later.
The access to the hiking car park was also quite slippery. It was completely empty.
The first half of the route would have been easy to walk, but today …

Well signposted circular route with a steep climb at the end. Almost Alpine

Until 1806, three dominions met on the premium hiking trail #hochgehgrenzen: that of the princes of Fürstenberg, the dukes of Württemberg and that of the imperial knights ⚔️🛡️

The basis of today's hike was the "pre-made" route of the predicate hiking trail "high-limited" of the HOCHGEBERGE. The theme of the route is crossing borders, in particular the border between the Principality of Fürstenberg and the Duchy of Württemberg.
As with everything off the peg, you can embellish the finished product with fine fashion accessories. I started by setting …

The hike starts at the "Reichartsberg" hiking car park. We walk counterclockwise and soon enjoy the view from Schachenberg down to Bichishausen and the Lautertal valley. After the steep descent, a lovely beer garden awaits us at the "Bootshaus," where delicious food awaits us. The climb to the castle ruins also rewards us with magnificent views. The rest of the …
