Filsursprung

Hidden in the quiet Hasental valley near the former paper mill, a river that shapes the region rises at an altitude of 625 m: the Fils. Its source, the so-called Filsursprung, is an impressive karst spring in the middle of a natural valley. The water collects here via an extensive system of underground caves and crevices in the limestone of the Swabian Alb, before it becomes visible at a spring pot and emerges from the ground as a clear stream.

Surrounded by mixed forest, meadows and a pristine landscape, the source of the Fils seems to have fallen out of time. The quiet murmur of the water, the clean air and the idyllic scenery make the spring area a popular destination - not only for hikers, but also for families, nature lovers and those seeking peace and quiet. On the well-signposted path from the parking lot at the paper mill, information boards provide an introduction to the geology of the karst. Barbecue areas along the way invite you to take a relaxing break.

The Filsursprung is more than just the beginning of a river - it is a vivid insight into the natural forces of the Swabian Alb and an ideal place for a short escape from everyday life. Especially in spring and summer, the valley shows its most beautiful side.
