Description

(ENGLISH)
This is Section 9 of the Albsteig track, from Teck Castle to Bad Urach.
After the first and only climb of this tour to the ridge of the “Bassgeige”, one highlight follows the next. Viewpoints with impressive foresight prepare for the massive castle ruins of Hohenneuffen. The route mostly follows a natural trail along the edge/ridge of the "Swabian Alb" with some quite technical parts. The vantage point "Buckleter Kapf" and the hell holes worth seeing are then on this route before going down to Bad Urach.

Description

(ENGLISH)
This is Section 8 of the Albsteig track, from Bobler to Teck Castle.
This diverse stage mainly leads over the Albtrauf with many beautiful viewpoints, the Ruinen Reussenstein, the Randecker Maar, the hill of the Auchtert, spectacular Breitenstein and the Ruine Rauber are along the track. The highlights of the route are certainly the view from the Breitenstein and the Teck Castle, which is located above the small town Owen. Sometimes the paths are quite steep and surefootedness is required, especially when it is wet.
