Balingen–Tübingen Cycle Route (RadNETZ)

An easygoing RadNETZ link from Balingen to Tübingen, tying the Swabian Alb foothills to the Neckar university town. Expect mostly paved riding with long asphalt stretches, mixed with quiet roads, shared paths, and a few farm tracks. In town centers you may pass through pedestrian areas—slow down and be courteous.

Great for everyday trips or a relaxed weekend spin, with village sections, open fields, and Alb views along the way. Both ends have good rail connections if you want a one‑way ride.

Quick tips: wider tires make the track bits comfier, and lights help in shaded sections. Cafés and bakeries are easy to find at the start and finish.

Note: some OSM stats here look incomplete, so distance/elevation may be underreported.
