Very beautiful tour passing wonderful viewpoints and ruins as well as inhabited castles.

Start and parking in Oberndorf near the town hall (monastery church).

From here, it goes up to the old town and then on to the Gasthaus Stockbrunnen. Then past the ruin Waseneck and back onto the asphalt road on the plateau towards Höhingen. Before Höhingen, in a sharp left curve, we leave the road and ride straight on a good forest road until we reach the road from Höhingen again. Here, right and on the next street left to the Marienkapelle. Now it goes down to Epfendorf and on the Neckar valley cycle path to Talhausen. We leave the cycle path after the railway track to the right, cross the B14 and ride on asphalt to Herrenzimmern. From here, a footpath leads to the ruin Herrenzimmern (possible stop for refreshments). On the driving path, it goes uphill to the district road, now left past farms and through a hollow way down to the B14 which is crossed to reach Talhausen station. Then cross the Neckar (wooden bridge) and uphill to Hohenstein Castle. On the plateau, it goes past the Dietingen rest stop to the field cross, now left and almost straight ahead to a large shed. Here, left to Tierstein and back here again. Now on and the second street right then left down into the Schlichem valley, continuing almost to the Neckar bridge, here right uphill between houses to the nursery and on the path to the street. After a few metres, right up to the Kapf cross. From here a little further up and along the forest edge to the street. Before Harthausen, left through the Madertal valley over the district road to the Schenkenburg ruin. Back to the district road and uphill to the sports ground, then left (at the highest point wonderful view to Lichtenegg Castle) and at the first houses left down into the Schenkenbach valley and immediately back up to Lichtenegg Castle. On the path to the street which is immediately left again. Now down on the lane to Altoberndorf (shortly after the sharp right turn you can still go to the Altoberndorf mountain chapel) where you join the Neckar valley cycle path which leads back to Oberndorf and to the parking lot.
