    Hiking

    The Katzensteig is a challenging and varied hiking trail with scenic and cultural attractions.

    It leads over the Katzenbuckel, from Eberbach to Neckargerach, or vice versa. It is around 26 km long and you have to overcome an altitude difference of around 950 m.

    Here, in the first section from Eberbach, it leads over numerous serpentines to the castle ruins and to the highest mountain in the Odenwald, the "Katzenbuckel".

    Nice way up to the castle ruin Eberbach which is absolutely worth a trip, from there the Katzensteig continues.
