View of the Blautal Valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

The cycle path along the Blau from Blaubeuren to Herrlingen is well developed and now has asphalt throughout. There are hardly any gradients and lots of great views for free. …

Path Along the River Blau

Highlight • Cycleway

Especially during the week a car-free, little-traveled route with excellent asphalt. Very popular on weekends and should therefore be avoided.

View of Schloss Klingenstein

Highlight • Viewpoint

Perched on the south side of the blue valley. Nice to look at. For hardcore gravel fans there is a steep ascent to Klingenstein and then on to Harthausen.

Cycle path along the Blau from Gerhausen to Arnegg

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

This is a great place to really let it all go. A perfect bike path, wide enough and with a good surface. Scenic and far, far away from cars.
