Through the forest to the Hochburg castle ruins and along the Brettenbach stream back to the town of Emmendingen
The hike, which starts in the heart of Emmendingen at the train station, leads to the Hochburg castle ruins, one of the largest castle and fortress complexes in Baden. After just 500 meters, we are in the countryside. Passing a forest playground and a leisure hut, we have a wide view of Breisgau and the Black Forest. Through orchards, fields and pastureland, we reach the Hochburg. From there we have a wonderful view of Emmendingen and the surrounding area, with the Kandelbergland in the background. After visiting the mighty castle ruins, the numerous seating areas invite you to take a break and enjoy the breathtaking views. The tour ends with a descent through the Hornwald forest at the train station in Emmendingen.
