Family-friendly alternative to the hectic Gutachtal for the route from Hornberg to St. Georgen/Villingen-Schwenningen. Tarmac, moderate gradient and an inn at the end.

From Hornberg up to the Windkapf you cross the Schwanenbach 500 vertical meters and has a few beautiful ramps in the climb to cope.

Beautiful, completely traffic-free or low-traffic climb to the St. Georgen Heights. The option described here goes left towards Windkapf. In my opinion, especially for MTBs and gravel bikes, it is nicer to turn right just behind the Gasthaus Lamm towards Unterlangenbach and then continue uphill, initially on asphalt, later over steeper gravel. After the climb, on the more western side of the region, in contrast to the original route, you have beautiful, sparsely forested meadows in front of you and can continue quite comfortably towards St. Georgen or Vöhrenbach/Furtwangen.
