October 2, 2023,Balingen: Burg Hohenzollern - Starzel Runde

At the beginning you always have Hohenzollern Castle in view. Great landscape, in places the cycle path runs along very busy roads.

October 30, 2022,Panoramablick zur Burg Hohenzollern/Rundtour Balingen-Hechingen-Haigerloch-Balingen

Beautiful relaxed Sunday tour through the Swabian Jura with great views of Hohenzollern Castle. An ideal tour for autumn as there are no large and dangerous (because of leaves) descents.
But you should do the tour on Sundays because you sometimes have to go through Balingen and Hechingen and the traffic is just more relaxed there. 👍🤩

Great tour with no major problems, paved roads except for a short stretch near Owingen.
The highlight was Café Charlotte in Haigerloch. Cozy, great view, very friendly, and the cake delicious.
