    Magnificent plateau on the Hesselberg

      A good place to stop after my hike is the lovely restaurant in Wittelshofen with its fantastic beer garden, "Die Gaststätte Wörnitzstuben"! Beforehand, of course, enjoy a snack at the summit hut or the kiosk on the Hesselberg.

        Blackthorn also grows here.
