The Frau Holle dream loop is a certified premium hiking trail. A fairytale hike through the landscapes of the Black Forest high forest along streams and woods, which takes its name from a rock in the lower part of which the eyes of Mrs Holle are said to be visible. There is a beaver dam at Keller Steg. The route is very easy to walk except for a fairly steep section on the Taubenberg.
