This scenic hike lives up to its name right from the starting point. From the Old Water Tower in Dobel, you get a first taste of what awaits you over the coming kilometers – great views far beyond the Alb valley. After the 360° view from the observation tower, we hike on the legendary long-distance trail, the Westweg, over the height of the Alb valley. Wide hiking trails lead us to the highlights of this route. Those who want to completely relax can make themselves comfortable on the sky loungers on the Hahnenfalz trail. A few meters further, from the Schweizerkopf Hut, you get a top-class panoramic view. The view extends over the Alb valley to the Rhine plain and, in good weather, as far as the French Vosges – a dream! Along the way, there are further viewpoints, such as at the Hahnenfalz Hut. Forest paths lead us to the extensive Valley Meadow. The Wildcat Forest Experience Trail and the Spring Experience Trail are the highlights at the end of the route.
The hike follows exclusively the marked hiking trail network of the Black Forest Association. The diamonds and signposts guide us from location to location.
