Hoher Steiger Forest Educational Trail

Highlight • Trail

An educational forest trail, a little old!
The boards are no longer quite right.
But a nice path to run. 🧙

Hoher Steiger Summit

Highlight • Summit

Beautiful views, climb even with less physical fitness. The wild garlic field is incredible. You run mostly on soft forest floor.

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great place to let the soul dangle. From here you can watch fantastic sunsets. Two benches invite you to linger.

April 20, 2024,Schlüsselblumen auf den Höhen des Steigers (H9) 🦅🏞🏰

In search of orchids, we were drawn to the H9. Bright green and blue skies made the path a complete dream. 🏞️
It's not just the highlights along the way that are great fun, but the structure of the path itself. Paths and meadow paths that alternate. At the same time, wide views, whether overcast or bathed in sunshine. 🌤️ …

July 14, 2024,Habichtswaldsteig Extratour H9 "Über die Höhen des Steigers"🍀

Another beautiful Habichtswald extra tour.
Beautiful views, great forest paths (sometimes quite overgrown).
Very well signposted tour.
The official hiking car park H9 has just 2-3 parking spaces.
If you drive over the motorway bridge you have the option of parking at the edge of the forest (although it is difficult to turn around).
Recommended tour

March 11, 2025,Habichtswaldsteig Extratour H9 "Über die Höhen des Steigers"

The H9 is a tour that mainly goes through the forest or along the edge of the forest, but also has short sections that stretch across fields. The path was wonderful to walk on, you were almost only on soft forest or field ground. The signage was good and you really have beautiful views along the way. The castle ruins …

April 2, 2023,H9 - "Über die Höhen des Steigers" 🦅🏞🏰

No Habichtswaldsteig today, but the Habichtswald extra tour with paths without end, which is still missing for us, well at the castle was over according to planning. 🏰
We've seen it here several times since it opened, but we walked it for the first time and really enjoyed it. The “oh how beautiful” exclamations can no longer be counted and …

The tour is also good to go in winter. You can drive to the starting point of the H9, but unfortunately you can't if you don't have agricultural concerns. So we started from there.
