Wouldn't have thought to see a memorial stone for the fallen gymnasts of North Swabia up here. Maybe they should still be able to enjoy the beautiful view.

Hiking

The Bockberg is located on the south-eastern edge of the Ries crater and, at 562 meters, is one of the highest peaks in northern Swabia. From a viewing platform you have a wide view into the Ries, over the Wörnitz Valley and as far as Donauwörth.

Hiking

This place is perfect for a little break. Especially the distant view invites you to linger and let your thoughts drift away.
