Puuhhh.... - exhausting - it's tough! Once at the top, the deserved shandy tastes particularly good!

Panorama bench with a view of the Neckar

Highlight • Viewpoint

Take a seat and relax. There's not much visibility right now, but maybe in winter when the trees are bare.

Hollow way in the Geo-Naturpark Bergstraße-Odenwald

A hiking trail straight through a green tunnel of branches and leaves. From this point it goes quite steeply downhill to Hirschhorn on the banks of the Neckar.

Fritz Baumgärtner memorial stone with a view

From here you have a beautiful view of the village Neckarkatzbach and especially on the Mittelberg. The gently arched ridge rises here from an elongated valley, which is traversed by the Krebsbach.

Hiking trail above the old vineyards of Diedesheim, near Schreckhof

Nice hiking trail at the top of the slope.

The market square of Mosbach is one of the most beautiful in all of Baden, and the Palm House from the early 17th century is its undisputed star. Take a closer look at the hand-carved decorations on the beams: they show symbols from faith, craft, and the everyday life of the builders and tell their own story if you take the time to read them.

View of Schloss Horneck and Gundelsheim

Highlight • Viewpoint

The lock is part of the Gundelsheim barrage. Numerous similar barrages were built along the Neckar in the 1930s to make the river more navigable. A bridge runs over the barrage, over which pedestrians and cyclists can get to the other bank.

On a simple dirt road you walk here with a magnificent view along the banks of the Neckar. From here you also have a magnificent view of the St. Alban Church in Offenau.
