The Devon Trail is a certified premium hiking trail. Rugged cliffs and deeply cut river valleys await you in the Nature Hiking Park Delux. The geology is particularly favorable for this landscape, because the test was able to cut deeply into the landscape over millions of years and thus divided the landscape into many facets.
There are also wonderful panoramic views to enjoy while standing on the Marian column on the Aichelberg. After all, you can enjoy absolute idyll in the untouched Dierbachtal. Here, narrow paths exude a pure feeling of adventure.
