Covered Wooden Bridge Over the Neckar to Ihlingen

Highlight • Bridge

If you see dark clouds gathering in Neckartal - the bridge to Ihlingen is the solution. Take shelter and wait until the shower is over. Then continue driving in the dry :-)

Anyone cycling along the Horb to Sulz bike path will pass these trees near Fischingen. So easy to miss. They only really stand out when the sun lifts them from the greenery. But then they truly shine. 🌳🌳

Wooden Bridge Over the Neckar Near Sulz

Highlight • Bridge

The small wooden bridge appears inconspicuously in front of the cyclist. A few turns later, it's behind me – and in front of me is a rest area: a table with two benches. The Swabians are quite practical.

June 18, 2023,18. Juni 2023 - Sonntag - mit dem E-Bike von Sulz nach Horb zum Ritterfest

Annett and Peter K. were the incentive for me to go to the Knights' Festival in Horb today. I assumed that it would probably be almost impossible to find a parking space in Horb. That's why I parked in Sulz next to the Evangelical Church and rode my e-bike on the Neckar cycle path to Horb. After a few hours …

The bike needed to be ridden – the sun was shining, it was warm, and there was a tailwind. It rode well up the Schillerhöhe 🌳🌲
On the return trip, there was a strong headwind – easterly winds are rather rare in our latitudes. It was still a nice ride.

There were repeated rain showers in the morning and we couldn't start driving until 2:30 p.m. and the next shower was supposed to come at 6:00 p.m. but it passed and we arrived at the campsite dry.

A nice cycle path, but not necessarily recommended at the moment due to some construction sites and detours with poor signage

November 25, 2024,Trainingsfahrt über die Schillerhöhe in Sulz

I saw the 12 degrees as an invitation: get on the bike and start pedaling. It went really well, but twelve degrees is really fresh on shady roads - not to say chilly 🥶
I didn't feel it going uphill, only going downhill. After the Schillerhöhe in Sulz, I kept my altitude on a ridge - the Swabian Alb to …

It's supposed to rain - take a quick lap before we start. From Horb to Hopfau it was easy. Then the ascent to the Schillerhöhe. A beautiful landscape with sun
and heavy, thick clouds. And with the first wind. He accompanies me on the way home. I get a few raindrops. It was nice 🙏

Roll up to Hopfau. Then the step is good when it goes uphill. Out of the Neckar valley and up to the Schillerhöhe and the view widens. The Swabian Alb in a bright blue sky with some white clouds are on the right in front of me. And on the left the Black Forest under a blue sky. It was …

July 13, 2025,Zur Schillerhöhe und im Glatttal zurück

Today I had a strong westerly wind. That's unusual here, so things were a bit more difficult at the beginning. Riding up through Fischingen is surprising: with every meter, the groves of trees on the horizon slowly come closer. I've been riding this route for more than twenty years, and it's always exciting. Either I'm getting old, or the child …
