View of Neckarsteinach's Four Castles

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Great view over the Neckar to Neckarsteinach and the four castles. The path is gravel so that you can still ride well even with thin racing bike tires.

Neckar cycle path

Highlight • Trail

A beautiful section of the trail around Hirschhorn. At the "forest sofa" near Hirschhorn, with its view of Hesse, you can sign a boundary book. A great idea from the forestry staff!

January 29, 2025,🚴‍♀️Heidelberg 🏰 -Hirschhorn - Heidelberg 🏰

The cycle path is in good condition and you can make good progress 🚴‍♀️ . Only on the way back does it go along the Neckar and it is quite dark there in the evenings 🌙 . In the evenings there can be an increased risk of falling into the Neckar 🫣 🛟. The route can also be easily managed …

March 20, 2022,🌸 auf der Suche nach blühenden Kirschblüten - Fahrradtour nach Heidelberg 🌸

In search of blooming cherry blossoms, I was successful. Heidelberg is always worth a tour, the view of the castle with the blooming cherry blossoms was very beautiful. The weather was spring-like and dry, but on the way home I had to deal with quite a bit of headwind.

When I arrived back in the city below, I went to the old bridge on the Schlierbacher side in the direction of home, …

October 2, 2021,Radtour nach Heidelberg aufs Schloss

Started in the cold and foggy and the further towards Heidelberg it went, the warmer and clearer it became. A great tour of the castle, but when you get to the top you have to push your bike. But it's still worth it.

August 15, 2022,Neckartal-Radweg: Eberbach nach Heidelberg

We are finally cycling our "forgotten tour" from the Neckar Valley Cycle Path 2020! Start at the swimming pool in Eberbach - on the left side. We noticed right away that the Neckar Valley Cycle Path logo has changed!

The route went directly along the Neckar through Pleutersbach in Baden to the Hessian border with the great "Grenzbuch" and the …
