A great city center location and a 10 minute uphill walk brings you to the rubble hill. Lovely views on a clear and not typically hazy day. However, it didn't wow us in any way as had seen in reviews.

Interesting bit of history. This is the highest point in the Stuttgart area (511m) and gives great panoramic views of the surrounding area. We walked up on a nice day in August. Park across the street and it a short walk up the hill to the top. Loved the views and the history (although we couldn't read the German historical markers attesting to the significance of the place.

Here are some directions from the Böblingen side of town: Ttake the A831 toward Stuttgart for nearly a kilometer and continue onto B14 for three kilometers. Continue onto Wildparkstraße for one and a half kilometers. And continue onto Rotenwaldstraße for a kilometer. A parking lot sits between where the road splits into Rotenwaldstrasse and Geisseichstrasse. Walk across Geisseichstrasse and you will be at the base of the hill. It’s only a short walk up the path that winds around the hill and leads you to the summit.
