October 20, 2023,5. Etappe vom Kocher-Jagst Radweg von Schwäbisch Hall bis Forchtenberg

5th stage of the Kocher-Jagst cycle path from Schwäbisch Hall to Forchtenberg. Length 45 km, easy, well-developed and very well signposted route. Mostly slightly sloping along the Kocher River with only short climbs. Highly recommended!

Today the stage was a little shorter, but a highlight in terms of landscape. You should take your time in Schwäbisch Hall. This city offers an incredible amount of small streets, architecture and flair.
On the way you will pass beautiful old towns that are also great to visit. Unfortunately, you can't do everything in one stage.

We also wanted to take a break in Niederhall, but unfortunately everything was closed on Monday. So we continued.
On to Forchtenberg. After 46 km, after a stopover at …

Last stage for us on the KoJa cycle path... it's actually TOO bad that we had to do this beautiful cycle path in dull, grey weather again. When I see the sunlight-flooded pictures in the komoot highlights, I cry - because the route runs through truly enchanting scenery. In my opinion, this section of the Kocher-Jagst cycle path is the …

How glad I was that we only had a short chill tour today with temperatures above 30 degrees 🥵
Of course we used the Kneipp facility with wonderfully cold water right away 😊
There is also a long break with ice cream 🍦 and non-alcoholic yeast 🍺. And of course countless short drinking breaks💦

A very nice stage. Through beautiful landscapes, through beautiful places. Schwäbisch Hall is highly recommended. Our hotel was 3 km outside. I would recommend getting a hotel in the city. Then you can enjoy the beautiful city in the evening
