Highest of the Drei Kaiserberge with a viewpoint, Stuifenkreuz cross, barbecue area and impressive panoramic views over the Ostalb.
At 757 meters high, the Stuifen is the highest of the Three Imperial Mountains and a popular excursion destination in the Swabian Alb. In contrast to its neighbors Hohenstaufen and Rechberg, the striking mountain has remained undeveloped and retains its natural character to this day.

At the summit, visitors can enjoy a spacious vantage point with the Stuifenkreuz cross visible from afar. From here, there is a wide view over the Ostalb, the Rems Valley, the Drei Kaiserberge and, on a clear day, as far as the Albtrauf. Several seating areas invite you to enjoy the view in peace.

A barbecue area with benches and a shelter make the summit a popular resting place for hikers, cyclists and families. The Stuifen can be reached via various hiking trails and can be perfectly combined with tours to the other Kaiserberge mountains.

The combination of impressive views, natural landscape and good infrastructure makes the Stuifen one of the most beautiful vantage points in the region.
