The Boßler near Gruibingen offers an impressive panorama over the foothills of the Alb at an altitude of almost 800 m. The Boßlerhaus makes it a popular hiking destination.

The Boßler is a striking mountain in the Swabian Alb near Gruibingen and rises up to 794.7 m above sea level. From its vantage point on the Albtrauf, you can enjoy a wide view over the foothills of the Alb - on a clear day, you can see far to the west. Hiking trails such as the Schwäbische-Alb-Nordrand-Weg (HW 1) and HW 7 lead directly over the Boßler, making it a popular destination for nature lovers, hikers and day-trippers.

Around 500 meters west of the Naturfreundehaus is a particularly beautiful vantage point. There is also a large memorial cross here, which commemorates several tragic plane crashes that have occurred in the region since the 1940s.

A central highlight is the Boßlerhaus, a hut run by the Göppingen Naturefriends local group. It is idyllically situated at an altitude of 785 m and invites you to take a break with regional cuisine, cool drinks and a cozy atmosphere - whether as a day trip or a stopover on a longer tour.

Just a stone's throw away is the Gruibinger Wiesle, a vantage point that is also ideal for a break. The Boßler combines nature, history and hospitality - a worthwhile destination at any time of year.
