Beautiful view of Klingenstein Castle, which, along with its ruins, has been owned by the Leube Foundation since 1975. The right of use is held by the Leube family, descendants of the Ulm pharmacist and co-founder of the German cement industry, Ernst Gustav Leube (1816-1881).

The Tiefental Valley, often called the Butterfly Valley, is a quiet, almost hidden gem of the Alb. In the warmer months, numerous species of butterflies flutter through here – a sign of the intact natural environment. The entrance leads past an alpaca farm in true style – and if you look around, you might even get a curious look from the woolly onlookers. Do they know that they are the secret mascots of the event?
