Horb on the Neckar

Highlight • Settlement

The Horb skyline is worth seeing - cyclists should take a short break on the Neckar. If you want more, you can take the Flößersteg to the lower town. Behind the market hall at the tip of the island, you can extend your break in the Neckarrauschen beer garden.

There is also a rest area next to the bridge, so when the trains roll again you can watch them!

From this bridge you have a great view of the Neckar, which is still very small and natural. The lush riverbank and the forest in the background give a unique panorama.

May 19, 2025,#1 Rottweil nach Horb
A relaxing week on the Neckar Valley Cycle Path. I highly recommend the tour.

Showing Translation

Wonderful day's stage always within striking distance of the still naturally flowing Neckar. Short, crisp climbs alternate with longer descents on the route, which is away from traffic. Many wooded areas with shady passages made the 50 km long stage pass very pleasantly at almost 27 degrees...more of that would be nice.
We stayed at the Hotel Schiff on the …

Here the Neckar Valley Cycle Path goes up and down a little. Through flowering meadows, along a railway line, over pretty wooden bridges and almost completely without traffic noise.

Today we went from Rottweil to Horb am Neckar. There were many exciting stops, from wooden rafts to drinking fountains, benches, and Little Venice.

The route goes from hotel to hotel.

The beer garden by the Neckarrauschen is highly recommended; it's a lovely place to sit and listen to the Neckar River over the weir.

1st bike ride in 2022. Up until now it was too cold for me to cycle. It worked today, but towards evening, when you were out and about in the shade, it got really fresh and I even put on my gloves for the last few kilometers.
Otherwise it went quite well on the known - same route there and …

Today we cycled a stage on the Neckartalweg. From Rottweil to Horb am Neckar with beautiful early summer temperatures.

7.50 euros for a 32 km train ride from Sulz am Neckar back to Rottweil ... then refueled in RW for 104 euros - it's getting crazier in this country.

On the stage the weather wasn't quite as nice as the days before, a handful of drops also came down. Nevertheless a nice tour. And Rottweil really surprised me with its beautiful city center. And the stop at the Golden Wheel has finally reconciled me.
