Viewpoint "Höchsten" with dialect path and promipath

  • Photo: Ferienregion Nördlicher Bodensee

Hike on the "Höchsten" - View Point at 833 m with a magnificent view of Lake Constance and the Alps. Walk in the footsteps of prominent personalities such as the Margrave of Baden or Captain Bluebear and get to know the local, Swabian-Alemannic dialect.

The "Höchsten" - the highest mountain between Lake Constance and the Danube - is the viewpoint of the holiday region Northern Lake Constance. This is where the Swabian-Alemannic dialect path with Promipfad was created.

"Dia schwäbische Mädla send alle schee, ausgnomma die wiaschte! Understand? No?

Get to know original expressions and idioms of the local dialect on this approx. 1 km long circular trail or refresh your memories.

In addition, there are about 50 original footprints of celebrities like the Hofmann siblings, Prof. Dr. Lothar Späth and others along the way.

A visit to the herb, fragrance and medicinal plant garden is also recommended. Guided tours followed by a herb buffet with ingredients from and around the herb garden are offered from Whitsun until the beginning of October.
