Altdorf lies on the edge of the Schönbuch - one of the largest contiguous forest areas in Baden-Württemberg and is surrounded by picturesque hills. The town is known for its half-timbered houses from the 18th century and the historic market square with an old lime tree as its focal point.

The tourist-relevant sights are Hohenentringen Castle with its beautiful baroque garden and the viewing platform on the tower, as well as the collegiate church of St. Martinus from the 15th century with its impressive frescoes. Century with its impressive frescoes.

Culturally interested people should not miss a visit to the Alte Post Museum, where you can gain insights into the history of the postal service or also take a guided tour of the local history museum.

For gourmets, there are numerous culinary specialities such as the traditional "Schupfnudel" or the regional dish "Maultaschen". A detour to a local winery is also always worthwhile!

In terms of outdoor activities, hikes through the Schönbuch can be undertaken - they are particularly beautiful in spring when everything is in bloom or in autumn when the leaves are colourful . There are also many cycle paths to explore the surrounding area.

If the weather doesn't cooperate, you can relax in the Therme Böblingen or attend a show at the cinema.

Altdorf is a destination that is always worth a visit. The town offers both cultural and natural highlights and is characterised by its friendly inhabitants. Come by and experience for yourself how beautiful it can be here!

    Sehr schöne und leichte Tour auf guten Wegen. Leider nicht ausgeschildert. Es wäre sinnvoll, wenn die Wegbeschreibung hier in der App (Fahrtrichtung Uhrzeigersinn) mit den Richtungspfeilen der Karte (entgegengesetzt) übereinstimmen würde.

    Schöne Wanderung auf bequemen Wegen. Der Abzweig zu den Erdtrichtern ist kaum zu sehen, da hilft der gpx-Traxk. Die Grundmauern der Einsiedelei sind direkt neben dem Weg, interessant und mit großer Infotafel. Der Bannwald wäre einen Abstecher wert, dann käme man aber nicht an der Einsiedelei vorbei. Wo soll die Hubertuseiche stehen ? Der Birkensee und das umliegende Moorgebiet sind sehr schön. Danach zieht es sich aber doch sehr. Die Grabhügel sind selbst im Winter schwer zu finden. Ich habe einen flachen Hügel gesehen, aber ein Stück vom Standort gemäß Karte entfernt und nur ca. 1,5 m hoch.

    Angenehme Wanderung, gut zu erreichen mit Öfis. Ein Stern 🌟 weniger wegen des hohen Asphaltanteils. Landschaftlich außerhalb von Böblingen und Holzgerlingen aber schön.

    Super Landschaft, aber sehr viel Asphalt, daher eher als Radtour zu empfehlen. Wenigstens ein paar Bänke entlang der Strecke würde die Wanderer erfreuen.
