May 31, 2025,Blick zur Neckarschleife – Kirchheimer Weinterrasse Runde von Kirchheim am Neckar

A very beautiful route, but I would like to point out that surefootedness is absolutely necessary for the short stretch over the steep slopes. I did the route in the opposite direction and then walked directly down the stairs from the viewpoint. Some of the other routes aren't in as good condition.

Otherwise, highly recommended.
