Hinteredtwanderung

From the church square, walk down the Kirchensteig to the village mill. There, turn left, pass the gas station and department store, turn left, and then immediately right, walking slightly uphill to the Bründl Chapel (a former pilgrimage church); from there, follow the sandy road uphill all the way to Hinteredt. In a forest clearing, you’ll find the forester’s lodge with a chapel. From Hinteredt, about 1 km away, there’s a side trail leading to the Windschopf snack bar. Pass the 150-year-old “Domherrenbuche” beech tree, then turn left toward Dorfstetten.

There is plenty of (free) parking available at the church. This is also where the hiking trails begin.
