Hiking Highlight
Tips
The Birkenkopf is 511 meters high. After the Second World War, the rubble of the city of Stuttgart was deposited on the mountain. Hence the colloquial name Monte Scherbelino. Because of its height and location, of course, a magnificent vantage point.

Nice view of the Stuttgart city center. Here, the remnants of the bombed-out inner city were transported after World War II to make room for the reconstruction of the city center. Since then, the birch head is 40 meters higher.

Those who live in the area call the birch head "Mt Scherbelino" because the "shards" come from Stuttgart and the surrounding area. The rubble that arose in the city during World War II.
