Nice, paved bike path along the Zaber and parallel to the former Zabergäubahn railway line. In some places you still cross the rails or they are still visible.

Between magnificent half-timbered houses, narrow alleys, and historic squares, the old town of Eppingen unfolds its very special charm. Around the striking Pfeifferturm, numerous lovingly restored buildings shape the cityscape and lend the town an almost fairytale-like atmosphere.

July 5, 2025,Kumpels 🚲Runde im Kraichgau: KR1 Heuchelbergtour ☀️🏔️

It was that time again... a friend's bike tour and trip to another region, more precisely in Kraichgau, Zabergäu and through the Stromberg Nature Park - Heuchelberg in the Heilbronn region. Along Katzenbach, Leinbach, Zaber, Himmelsbach and the Ehmetsklinge bathing lake, the motto was: as close to the water as possible 🚲☀️😎... With the temperatures still summery, a large part …

September 6, 2021,KR1- Runde um den Heuchelberg

Take advantage of the nice weather - I thought to myself and started cycling. The tour went around the Heuchelberg based on the KR1. I changed the route slightly because of a few construction sites and so on ... The start and end point was the outdoor pool in Schwaigern. Great tour, just a bit sweaty at 28 ° C. …

I left today for the second time. After the short tour this morning I wanted to enjoy the beautiful weather even more. Started in Leingarten once generously around the Heuchelberg to Eppingen and via Schwaigern back to Leingarten. At the end it was pretty cold, but it was bearable.

Today we were on a bike tour to Brackenheim, which Gerd Geiser had invited me to. Starting from Eppingen north of the Heuchelberg, we made a wide detour via Gemmingen and Schwaigern, taking a quiet route through expansive fields and meadows until the vineyards gradually took over. We had reached the Zabergäu! In bright sunshine, we admired the Heuchelberger Warte …
