Great view of the train route and the Straub mill…and with benches and a table a great place for a break.

Along the lion path

Highlight • Viewpoint

Circumnavigating the deeply cut Rohrachtal on both sides is always an experience.

The Galgenberg rock at 645 metres above sea level offers a very good view of Geislingen/Steige, although you have to go up onto a small rocky outcrop to get there.

Öde Tower

Highlight • Monument

The 36-meter-high tower, still a landmark of the town of Geislingen today, was built around 1400 to protect the lower Helfenstein Castle. After the castle was demolished in 1552, the Ödenturm remained. Today it serves as an observation tower.
