Wolfstal

Highlight • Gorge

A wide hiking and cycling path leads through the idyllic Wolf Valley, which is also part of the "Paths of Reflection". Here you can really switch off and leave everyday life behind.

View of the Bussen and the Alps from Heumacherfels

Highlight • Viewpoint

A steep ascent through the forest takes you to the Heumacherfels (695 m), in good weather you can see the buses and the Alps.
Unfortunately, the surrounding trees and bushes have grown so high that the view is considerably restricted.

December 31, 2023,🚶🏼‍♀️: ✨ Das Jahr ausklingen lassen ✨

Reflect on the year 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣3️⃣ on a quiet lap ☺️
For me personally it was associated with many ups and downs, not just from a mountain hiking perspective.

There were many great encounters, beautiful moments, good conversations with old and new friends 🤗, fantastic successes and of course a lot of loving time together with @T.Acki 👩🏼‍❤️‍👨🏻
Unfortunately, there were …

February 27, 2024,Burgenweg mit Märzenbecher im Wolfstal und Zinnoberroter Kelchbecherling

Today I started in Erbstetten to start a hike set up by Daniela E., thanks for sharing. The Kelchbechlinge and the Märzenbecher inspired us to do this great hike. The view from the Wartstein ruins into the Lautertal was the first highlight. In the Lautertal the gurgling of the Lauter could be heard again and again, as it carries a …

February 25, 2024,Burgen-Weg / Lautertal / Wolfstal / Zinnoberroter Kelchbecherling und Märzenbecher 🤩

Today there was a walk 🚶‍♂️from Erbstetten. First we went on the castle path to the Wertstein ruins with a view down into the Lautertal. Further above the Lautertal and then along the Lauter to the Wolfstal hiking car park near Laufenmühle. From there we went through the Wolf Valley with a real splendor of Märzenbecher and always beautiful vermilion …

March 3, 2024,Runde von Erbstetten durchs grosse Lautertal und Wolfstal

After so many reports from other Komootlers, we headed towards Wolfstal today. The starting point was Erbstetten, from where we headed towards the Wartstein ruins. From there down on partly alpine paths into the large Lautertal. Continue on the Burgenweg and HW5 towards Laufenmühle. Trees kept falling down throughout the hike, making progress difficult. The paths were really modest, especially …

March 2, 2025,Von Erbstetten ins Große Lautertal und ins Wolfstal

Hello,
when I was thinking yesterday about what I could "do" today in terms of hiking, I once again found what I was looking for in my old, green hiking booklet "Circular hikes in the western part of the Swabian Alb". As I was reading and planning, I thought: "you know the tour" - I did something similar almost exactly …

Sodele, after the pasqueflowers haven't shown up yet, made a plan B tour with Zinnoberroter Kelchbecherling in Lautertal 😍
Although the promised sun only showed up for a very short time, it doesn't matter what kind of schnapps (or is it called sponge over it ❓🤣), we liked it that way and it was a fun bunch with @Daniela E. …
