The present ruins of the summit castle are located on the summit of the 644 m high Hohenkrähen ("Krayen"), a mountain of volcanic origin north of Singen in the Hegau, between the villages of Duchtlingen, Schlatt unter Krähen and Mühlhausen in the Duchtlingen district.

Steep but well-secured stone path to the castle ruins.

Beautiful viewpoint from the hiking trail around the crater lake of the deep blue lake and the volcanic caldera.

Great photo opportunities at every corner and a super nice view

Very crisp and quite demanding ascent, with holding aids attached to the critical passages.

Exposed location with a wonderful view over the lake

Information board on the situation of the remains of the wall of the small outer bailey, which are clearly visible there.

Also called the "Blue Eye" of the Hegau. Unlike other volcanic relics and maars in the Swabian Alb, the "Höwenegg" is part of the Hegau volcanism. The main crater is the largest of a total of six eruption sites from which basalt and basalt tuff were mined. The lake visible today was formed in the former mining area. The eruption occurred 10 million years ago. At that time, a crater lake formed, which was visited by numerous animals. Fossil finds of 13 prehistoric horses, antelopes, and rhinos attest to the subtropical climate at that time. The fossils were excellently preserved in the lake sediment.
