It was a pretty relaxed hiking day today. After a decent climb, you reach a nice little forest area. Then it goes over fields and meadows and a few beautiful forest stretches to Büchelberg. Over this, it then continues towards Steinegg. In parts, you are offered really beautiful views along the way

Another nice little stage completed. It continued through the Schönbuch Nature Park. The highlight was the observation tower. From the top, there was a beautiful view. The forest path afterwards until shortly before Ehningen was also very nice. Only the rain could have waited another 30 minutes. In Ehningen

Today the weather again brought sun, clouds, wind, and rain. But it didn't change anything about the beautiful forest hike through Schönbuch. I love the smell in the forest when it has rained.
It was almost continuously a forest hike. Only towards Mönchsberg did I have to leave the forest.

First, it goes up from where you can see Pfullingen very well. Then it goes into the forest around Reutlingen towards Kapfen. There you have a very nice view

It's beautiful May weather and a bright blue sky. In my opinion, it's one of the most beautiful stages of the HW5, along with stage 10. It's a beautiful forest hiking trail that first goes up to Lichtenstein Castle. From there, you have a great view of the valley. For a small fee, you can also visit

Beautiful weather and the motivation to hike. I consciously started in Marbach because I wanted to take the Schwäbische Alb Bahn. And it was worth it. Unfortunately, it runs far too infrequently. It was predominantly a beautiful forest hike with small, beautiful field and meadow sections with great views

Plan C arrived too late... well, 2 hours later than planned, we then set off from Indelhausen. This time prepared to take the new path. Which was really great, it's a completely different picture

Heute ist bei der Tour der Wurm drin. Bin 5km falsch gelaufen. Ab den Wittstaig ist mir ein Fehler passiert. Ich hatte mich schon gewundert wie wenig dieser Teil ausgeschildert war im Gegensatz zudem wie es zuvor war. (Auf ein neues.)

Today was a disaster. From Wittstaig I got confused... and took the wrong path. Additionally, the nausea I've had all week made itself noticeable. I will either look at Stage 10 again more closely. Something must have changed. Either I will hike again from Wittstaig or completely from Indelhausen. Something
