The local mountain of the Markgräflerland is the 1164 m high high blue, which can be made thanks to a radio tower on its summit from the Rhine valley or from other mountains in the southern Black Forest. The mountain rises above Badenweiler and is thus between the Upper Rhine and the Kandertal. On fine days you have a great view over the southern Black Forest, to the Vosges Mountains and the border triangle around Basel - if you're lucky, even the Bernese Oberland with Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau can be seen.
The L140 leads to the high blue between Badenweiler and the upper Kandertal. The last three kilometers to the summit, however, are traversed on a spur road. From the Rhine Valley at least a stately 800 meters in altitude are covered, which are almost alpine dimensions. Thus, the blue in the southern Black Forest is one of the so-called big four - the other three are Feldberg, Belchen and Schauinsland. Although the blue in this quartet is certainly the least well-known, the view you have in particular from a small tower at the summit does not have to hide from the one at the Belchen. If you want to pack the mountain into a short but crisp round trip, you can combine it with the Way of the Cross, for example.
