***Where am I now?*** (game) (7)

Not from the train!

Of course. (In reply to Roy)

Not quite. The outcrop is very well known

Who was this to Roy?

True

Go on then! If it helps, it is about 5 k from my house.

How close am I, Ed and when you say "Well known" do you mean by locals?

Ankenballen ?

Trying to triangulate, limited to images from tourist spots on Google Maps, and looking at the contour lines, Schartenflue?

With that, 3:15am on off to bed! If close but no cigar (or even if not close), good luck to the winner before I wake up.

Ankenballen ?

I wondered that early on, Nic but discounted it as the countour lines of peaks between Ankenballen and Basel are apparently too high to give an uninterrupted view. I therefore concluded that the lovely cloud-in-the-valley photos taken from Ankenballen are over the plain the other side. I can of course be wrong.

I currently have no time to spend on this, so my reply remains Schartenflue.

You go much deeper than my random search and shoot method! Hope yours was right.

You are on exactly the right trajectory ... just not far enough.

Burg Bärenfels?
