If you want to experience a wonderful view over the Neckar valley and the Rhine plain, you should plan a detour to the Königstuhl, which rises above Heidelberg. At just under 568 metres, it is the highest mountain in the Kleiner Odenwald. The mountain can be reached either via one of the numerous hiking trails or via the mountain railway. Children can have fun on the forest adventure trail and in the fairytale paradise on the Königstuhl. Other attractions on the mountain are the falconry and the mountain railway station. Here you can visit the engine room of the historic mountain railway and find out about the history of Heidelberg’s trams and mountain railways in an exhibition.
