From the mountain slopes you have a wonderful view down into the Schmiech valley. At your feet, Sondernach, with its red roofs, nestles picturesquely into the green surroundings.

Blautopf

Highlight • Lake

A much sung about place, which rightly belongs to one of the most beautiful natural spectacles of the Alb. Summer, sun and the deep blue of the spring always have a beneficial and invigorating effect.
