The Steinbachtal is not far from Rothenburg in a northerly direction. It offers peace and seclusion, but also a great landscape. A real insider tip.

The Steinbach Valley is idyllically situated between the northern residential area of Rothenburg and the forest towards the Tauber Valley 🏞️.
At the beginning, a small path with a wooden sign ➡️ "WW Bettwar" leads straight downhill into the valley. From there, the path continues left, and the path widens in the valley and is now beautifully paved with gravel.🚵🏽♀️ Anyone considering cycling here should be aware that the gravel is very thick, and narrow tires (under 35 mm) without tread are not recommended.At the very beginning of the valley towards the Tauber, there is a paddock with two super cute donkeys who like to show off their skills and make a lot of noise 😁

On the way back to Detwang you can enjoy delicious pancakes and apple strudel on the terrace of the Hotel Schwarzes Lamm.
