Rinkenturm Observation Tower

The 23 meter high Rinkenturm offers a great view of the city of Baiersbronn and its surroundings. The best thing to do is to walk the Premiumweg Satteleisteig straight away and you will automatically pass the tower. The Premiumweg has rest stops along the entire route.
