The “Friedenslinde” circular hiking trail in Holzheim is an approximately 8.3-kilometer-long route that starts at the parking lot of the Jahnhalle in Holzheim. This beautiful circular hike, with its scenic views, is perfect for a leisurely family walk. Right at the start of the tour, the “Friedenslinde” greets hikers from the Reuteberg. Along the way, you’ll repeatedly catch new perspectives of the panoramic view characteristic of the Hohenstaufen city of Göppingen: the impressive “Three Emperors’ Mountains”—Hohenstaufen, Rechberg, and Stuifen—stretching across the Fil Valley all the way to the “blue wall” of the Swabian Alb in the south.
