Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The way is really great. It goes down really fast, but up the slope is so gentle that you hardly notice how you climb out of the Kochertal.

Forchtenberg Town Center

Highlight • Settlement

Although the road bike ride isn't ideal due to the cobblestones, the small town with its half-timbered buildings is very picturesque and worth a visit.
