Cycling day trip from Horb am Neckar to Tübingen

This ride takes you from the charming medieval town of Horb am Neckar all the way to the vibrant university city of Tübingen—a perfect blend of historic vibes and dynamic energy!

Starting out in Horb, perched along the banks of the Neckar River and known for its picturesque half-timbered houses, you’ll head north through rolling countryside. The route covers around 38 km with a decent amount of climbing (about 550 meters up)—but hey, that means some nice descents, too!

Most of your ride is on smooth, paved surfaces, with quiet back roads and tracks making up the majority. You’ll pass through sleepy villages and forested patches—a great way to soak up that Swabian scenery!

Arriving in Tübingen, you’ll find a lively old town full of cobblestone streets, traditional German architecture, and students cycling everywhere (Tübingen’s famous for its university!). Pop by the Neckar riverfront for a well-earned rest and maybe an ice cream.

Ideal for anyone looking to mix scenic countryside, historic towns, and a touch of adventure!
