Waldkugelbahn Weg

Attention! Due to bridge construction work, the tour currently leads via the Goldschmiedsweg back to the parking lot in the Taubental valley.

This varied circular hiking trail is suitable for the whole family and guarantees great fun in the midst of nature!

From the hiking parking lot in Taubental, follow the road for approx. 150 meters back towards Gmünd town centre. The Waldkugelbahn trail (SG 1) starts at the two Limes information boards on the right-hand side.

A narrow, small forest path leads hikers of all ages up to the plateau near Wetzgau to the "Himmelsgarten" landscape and family park. Here, visitors are rewarded with a breathtaking view of the Albtrauf from the 38-metre-high "Himmelsstürmer" observation tower. While the grown-ups take a break, the little ones can splash around undisturbed in the large water playground and go rafting.

From the Himmelsgarten, the path leads down the NATURATUM, an adventure forest trail with many discovery and forest experience stations, through the mysterious, centuries-old recreational forest in the Taubental valley. As a special highlight, the XXL ball track winds and meanders through the forest. Wooden balls for the ball track can be purchased from the ball machines for €0.50. A barbecue area near the parking lot invites you to round off the tour in comfort.If you are traveling with a baby carriage, you must take the ascent via the Waldentdeckersteg to the Himmelsgarten.
