About Schwäbische Alb
Natur und Mensch haben dieses Mittelgebirge zu einer einmaligen Landschaft geformt. Ein tropisches Meer schuf das imposante Hochplateau, dessen Abbruchkante, der Albtrauf, Wanderer mit weiten Blicken übers Albvorland beglückt. Wasser hat unzählige geheimnisvolle Höhlen in das Karstgestein gegraben. Besonders die noch sehr junge, unbekümmerte Donau prägt die Alb seit Jahrmillionen. Schon vor fast 40 000 Jahren durchstreiften Menschen ihre wilden Täler und rauen Hochflächen und hinterließen hier die ältesten Kunstobjekte der Menschheit – ein kulturelles Vermächtnis, das unter dem Schutz der UNESCO steht. Auf einer Radtour oder Wanderung kann man auf Entdeckungsreise zu Aussichtskanzeln, Flusstälern, Karsthöhlen und der alten Kulturlandschaft der Wacholderheiden gehen, die durch die Tradition der Schäferei bis heute bewahrt wird.
