    Hiking

    The 4.1-hectare heathland is designated as a natural monument. It is one of the few remaining dry meadows in Vaihingen (Enz), and a hiking trail runs through it. A historic boundary stone of the Vaihingen district is also located in the center.

    Hiking

    The limestone area was formerly used primarily for sheep grazing, and since the decline of this use, it is increasingly at risk of becoming a forest due to overgrowth, mainly of pine trees.

    Therefore, sheep are regularly needed here to maintain the heath.

    In the middle of this small area by the path, there is also an old boundary stone with a flower symbol on one side. It's simply beautiful here. And of course, you can also see Kaltenstein Castle from here.

    Small but beautiful heath. The view from the lower end of Vaihingen is also very beautiful.
