Kalter Bronnen Spring

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Kalter Bronnen is part of the nature reserve. It could have been restored rather than simply fenced in and left to its fate. This way, it won't be a highlight.

I also wanted to see some beautiful hiking areas and climb the Schönbuch Tower. But the best part was that it finally rained again. It's still far too little, but at least I know what rain feels like again 😉.
