    Hiking

    200 meters north of the Heersberg viewpoint are the remains of Heersberg Castle.
    Translated by
    In the years 1940/1941, German mountain troops of the 4th Mountain Division (Enzian Division) were stationed in the area. A section of the hiking trail from Lautlingen to the Heersberg is still called the Muliweg because the mountain troops had to use this steep ascent to the Alb with their mules almost every day during their training. A memorial stone on the high plateau commemorates the Muliweg and the Enzian Division.

    200 meters north of the Heersberg viewpoint are the remains of Heersberg Castle.

    The name of the Muliweg is based on the 4th Mountain Infantry Division.
