One hardly suspects it: but in this section of forest there are many bunkers that were built into the mountain here, from the time of the Cold War (the Pershing depot in Mutlangen was not far away). Definitely worth seeing.

partially walk-in bunkers. Some are also reserved for bats.

Hiking

I grew up in the Ostalbkreis district and also experienced the demonstrations over the Pershing-2 missiles. But the Waldstetten bunkers were completely unknown to me until this hike.

This is a piece of history that I only learned about thanks to komoot.
