Steep leads the very natural stairs from the city up to the forest lake. Half way there is the viewpoint, which offers a wonderful view over the city and further over the Nördlinger Ries. Practically, there is also a bank here.

Approximately 120 steps lead to the top... and offer a great view over Wemding at the very top.
