    Hiking

    The Neckarsteig starts off sportingly: Around 1,200 roughly hewn natural stones lead you up the "Himmelsleiter" (Stairway to Heaven), which takes you to the Königsstuhl. From up there, you have a great view of Heidelberg. However, you will often not find peace here: the Königsstuhl is a popular tourist destination. By the way, if the climb is too strenuous for you, you can enjoy the ascent by "funicular".

    Puuhhh.... - exhausting - it's tough! Once at the top, the deserved shandy tastes particularly good!
    Great view down to Heidelberg and the Rhine plain.

    Hiking

    Uff. Schnauf. It is long, it has no real steps, the kicks are arbitrary. A great exercise - up the hill, down the mountain. This can sometimes be involved in nice conversations, if you have to take a short break.
    For the trained course a breeze.
    We run it again and again, because we do not understand it to drive course. Everyone can ride a train. So take the legs in your hand and march the beautiful path.
