Between Täferrot and the dam, this more scenic section runs along the Lein River. Parallel to the other side of the official cycle path.

The Lein in Heuchlingen is already a stately little river that flows into the Kocher in Abtsgmünd.

With seating and a table. Magnificent views of all the Three Emperor Mountains. Simply stunning. There's also a large information board here. Don't take the S0 route if you're on a hybrid bike. This is where the hikers are. Instead, take the parallel route. It's worth it!
