History to touch at Hochkopf
The Hochkopfturm was built in 1925 and later renovated. The site is closely linked to the hiking culture of the Black Forest Club, which has been maintaining trails and offering guided tours in Todtmoos for many years. Doris Strittmatter is also actively involved in the club as a trained hiking guide and Nordic walking trainer.

Views, paths, and Black Forest atmosphere
The area around the Hochkopfturm is known as a scenic hiking region with a panorama over the Southern Black Forest and, on clear days, as far as the Swiss Alps. Access is integrated into a larger circular tour that leads from the center of Todtmoos via the waterfall path, Hochkopf, and other viewpoints. Weather-appropriate clothing and provisions are recommended.
