Die Klosterruine St. Michael in Heidelberg ist absolut sehenswert! Der Aufstieg war zwar sehr, sehr mühsam, aber oben angekommen wird man mit einer hammermäßigen Aussicht in alle Richtungen belohnt. Ein toller Ort, um Natur, Geschichte und einen einzigartigen Panoramablick zu genießen – der Weg lohnt sich auf jeden Fall.
