Hiking

Very beautiful sea of rocks on the slope above Schlierbach. A narrow path leads directly through the sea of rocks, and because of the lack of trees you also have a beautiful view of the Neckar valley.
Since this is a nature reserve, you should stay on the path and avoid climbing on the rocks.

Hiking

The "Sea of Rocks" in the Heidelberg city forest is something for specialists: On the one hand, plants thrive in the nature reserve that are adapted to the unusual and rather inhospitable site conditions of the ice age-shaped block heap. On the other hand, the area is difficult to access off the beaten path, so maintaining it requires a lot of effort and special skill. From the Molkenkur as well as from the “Hohler Kästenbaum” spider, a path leads through the protected area south of the Wolfsbrunnen in Schlierbach.

Very nice area below the Königstuhl. Other climate, vegetation and smell. A bit like in the Alps. Recommended.
