クッペンハイムの峡谷・トップ12

The recommendation is for the idyllic, tranquil landscape. The route itself, however, is a flop for me: The paved section is pretty dilapidated, and the gravel section is more reminiscent of a pebble beach on Lake Constance than Strade Bianche. You keep slipping on the loose, rough surface, and I was glad when I finally completed this section. I certainly wouldn't go downhill here. So you have to weigh up whether you're willing to put up with that.

Unfortunately, in dry weather, the gravel in the middle section is quite loose, lacking a binding agent. If that doesn't scare you, you'll find a beautiful side valley of the Murg with plenty of shady trees here—I really appreciate that, especially on hot summer days!

It leads spectacularly through mossy forests, past steep rock faces.

Impressive rock formations with all kinds of different colors!

The quarry was used until the end of the 19th century to extract building materials for the city of Baden-Baden. https://geotouren-schwarzwald.de/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Merkur-Flyer-Karte-Gesteine-vor-Ort-erleben.pdf

If you walk past here in the evening, the name says it all. Watch out!

Simply mystical to walk along the rocks
