Bisingen walks

The ancestral seat of the Prussian royal family and the Princes of Hohenzollern, Hohenzollern Castle is one of the most visited castles in Europe. Perched on a high hill in Swabia, the building, adorned with numerous towers, has a picturesque, medieval appearance when viewed from a distance. The view from Hohenzollern Castle is well worth the detour, though you’ll need to be prepared for a brisk 20-minute walk to finally reach the castle.

Anyone who has experienced this scenic premium hiking trail on a day with good visibility will be brimming with stories to share with friends later on. The famous ‘Brünnele’ alone – from which, quite unusually, water still bubbles at almost the highest point of the Gomadingen district (the source of the name ‘hochgehsprudelt’) – more than makes up for and rewards every hiker for the slight effort of the ascent. Breathtaking views, unspoilt juniper heaths with unique flora and fauna, and these forest sections with their wonderfully fresh scent make this trail a special sensory experience. Anyone climbing up will look down from here – and see far into the distance. The panoramic view from the 32-metre-high Sternberg Tower, situated on one of the highest peaks in the central Swabian Alb, is second to none when visibility over the Swabian Alb is good.

This varied tour starts directly at the Restaurant & Landhotel Winter in Offenhausen and first takes you past the historic monastery courtyard and the traditional Marbach State Stud. Following the "Hochgesprudelt" route, you hike through the characteristic juniper heaths of the Alb up to the Sternberg Tower, where a spectacular 360-degree view of the Alps awaits you.

A great circular walk for lovers of unspoilt nature who can't get enough of the calming effect of the forest and who are hungry for exercise in the fresh air and pure freedom.
