Buch-Eich Viewpoint and Rest Area
Highlight • Viewpoint
The beech oak originally consisted of two trees grown together (beech and oak).
It was destroyed by a lightning strike and re-planted in 1951 with a rooted beech and oak.
Today Buch-Eich is a popular meeting place for hikers and cyclists.
Tables and benches invite you to take a break. You can take a look from the top to Oppenweiler and Murrtal. The access roads are partially closed on Sundays and public holidays.
The Musikverein Reichenberg e.V. organizes every year on Ascension its traditional book-Eich-Fest with musical entertainment.

Seufzer Spring
Highlight • Natural Monument
"The spring of sighs was repaired in 1982 by the municipality of Oppenweiler in cooperation with the State Forestry Office Backnang.
The spring of sighs was already used as a water point by the residents of Schiffrain and Wilhelmsheim in earlier times. The idyllic location attracts some walkers to linger here for a while, to relax and to forget the everyday stress for a distance.
The legend tells of a faithless girl who is said to have been walled up there as a punishment. According to a further version, a maid who had been cast out of her rule gave birth to an illegitimate child with sighs and lamentations in the basement-shaped spring version. "
