Boßler

Boßler is a 799.7-metre-high (2,624 ft) mountain in the Swabian Alps, Baden-Württemberg, Germany.

Tourism

Located at an elevation of 785 m is the Boßlerhaus (Bossler House), a working agricultural building run by the local group Friends of Nature Göppingen. It is beside the Gruibinger Wiesle, a popular hiking destination. 500 m west of the house there is a viewpoint on the escarpment at an altitude of 794 m which offers a view far to the west. The Swabian Alp-North Rim Trail passes through this point.

Plane crashes

Boßler has been the site of several fatal air crashes. In most cases these were controlled flights into terrain due to pilots flying into the unexpectedly high mountain in the poor visibility.
