Mountain Biking Highlight
A fantastic distant view of the Rhine valley and over Heidelberg to the Palatinate Forest and Speyer - of course only when it is not too hazy. It is definitely recommended to take the mountain railway up - of course also recommended for cyclists and mountain bikers. In the warm months it is unfortunately quite overcrowded by a lot of tourists and local walkers. This can be a bit stressful for cyclists of all kinds. It is best to take a short descent near the mountain railway station - this can avoid trouble or even accidents.

Great view of the plane. A nice place to stay, but a lot of business on the weekend.
Everything is important here: bikers, hikers and joggers (the Himmelsleiter ends here), tourists (mountain railway station), etc.
Somewhat below there is the possibility to stop ...

Only way to get cool & hot drinks. In addition there are (always tasty) cakes as well as the classics of the Wald & Wiesen gourmets (worscht, stew, potato salad) at reasonable prices.

By cable car, bicycle, bus, on foot or by car you can reach the Königsstuhl (parking available). Impressive view and nice starting point for walks and bikers;)

The mountain top with a great view on every tour. From here countless trails go downhill.

A wonderful view and a magnificent panorama reward the effort to get there (if you go up by bike).
With the cable car up it is rather relaxing, unless it is weekend, then we almost trampled dead.

Definitely worth a visit here! The elevation gain a bit in the legs, but then you will be rewarded with a brilliant view!

One of the oldest cable cars in Germany, that is reason enough to go up here. Of course, there is also a lot to see.

I think you do not have to argue about the awesome view here, but a little hint: you can enjoy it all the more, even if you have mastered the altitude by yourself

The view from the Königstuhl. Magnificent view of the Rhine valley. Even if you've been up there 100 times. You can enjoy the view again and again.
