The Eselsburger Tal forms a section of the Brenz. The river flows from the Anhausen monastery near Herbrechtingen in a loop of the sharply narrowing valley around the "Buigen" ridge. First, the Brenz runs about three kilometers from Anhausen in a southerly and south-easterly direction,[1] past Bindstein Castle and Falkenstein Castle (Municipality of Gerstetten), after a hairpin bend in the district of Eselsburg (Herbrechtingen) it heads north to Herbrechtingen, where the Brenz turns sharply to the east. The Eselsburg valley is primarily known for its natural beauty; the most famous of these are the “Stone Maidens”. The Spitzbuben Cave is located at the southernmost point of the valley.

The rock formations are impressive and highly recommended. But be careful, there is a road leading through the valley. It is a direct connection from Eselsburg to Herbrechtingen and is driven on the right. It's a little quieter on the small hiking trail parallel to the road, on the other side of the floodplain.
