Steinenberg, Mountain summit in Tübingen, Germany

The Steinenberg reaches an elevation of 492 meters and forms the southern edge of Schönbuch, featuring pine forests and scattered fruit meadows on its slopes.

In 1859, authorities initiated a significant transformation of the mountain by planting extensive pine forests across the ridge and surrounding areas.

The mountain slopes maintained traditional scattered fruit meadows, locally known as Streuobstwiesen, replacing former vineyards that characterized the region's agricultural past.

Multiple hiking trails connect to the summit, ranging from a 4-kilometer easy route to an 18-kilometer path suitable for extended mountain excursions.

The Steinenbergturm observation tower at the peak provides views of Tübingen, the Swabian Alb, and the Black Forest mountain ranges.
