Nice path - but can sometimes be very narrow if there are a few people on the way - and when the water level is high it can be quite muddy, if not under water.

Running

Whatever the navigation suggests, go straight under the old bridge. On foot you can reach the shore directly on the Neckar meadow or from there on the path.

On the towpath the ships used to be pulled upriver.

Beautiful views of the old town and castle across the Neckar.

Running

You jog along the Neckar, but you should be careful where you step in that you don't bend your foot over the cobbled stone.
