Graf-Rhena Trail in the Alb Valley

Highlight • Trail

Here you are on the Graf-Rhena-Weg in the Albtal. The path is the classic path through the Albtal. It leads picturesquely along meadows through the Black Forest landscape. The path takes its name from the German diplomat Friedrich von Rhena.

I spontaneously asked Chris if he wanted to cycle with me from Ettlingen to Bad Herrenalb and he immediately agreed.
