Ockenauer Steg near Kirchberg on the JagstPhoto: Jan Bürgermeister, CC BY-SA, Hohenlohe + Schwäbisch Hall Tourismus e. V.
Point-to-point hike with four daily stages from Blaufelden to Ellwangen (Jagst) with connection to the German railway.
The first two stages of the Jagststeig lead you through the deeply cut valleys of the Jagst and its tributary streams. The cultural highlight is the former residence town of Kirchberg with its castle and the romantic alleys of the old town. The following two stages extend over a forest- and pond-rich upland along the European main watershed. At the destination, you reach magnificent Ellwangen, whose historical buildings date back to the Staufer period.
Derived from the technical difficulty and the stamina requirements.
