Brenz Cycle Path: Giengen to Herbrechtingen

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The approx. 4.3 km long cycle path, coming from Giengen, leads directly past the Brenz past the container terminal of the BSH and under the motorway bridge. To the right hand then follows the natural monument bird island and the industrial area Herbrechtingen. Under the B19 and the railway bridge, then finally follows the entrance Herbrechtingen.
The surface of the bike path is for the most part quite good.

Heidenheim Town Center and Hellenstein Castle

Highlight • Settlement

The pedestrian zone extends several hundred meters from the Voith site to the "Schloss Arkaden". Here you will find not only numerous retail shops, but also cafes, restaurants and takeaway sales - everything you need to strengthen and rest on extended shopping trips.
The Heidenheim city center is ideally suited to discover the latest fashion between historic buildings and various delicacies.
