Strombergrunde Eutingen - Bretten - Vaihingen

After starting from Pforzheim-Eutingen, first ride up to the Hohberg. From there, follow the Heidelberg-Schwarzwald-Bodensee cycle route to Bretten. Then take field paths and the Weissacher valley to Hohenklingen.

From this point, the route mostly climbs gently up to around Maulbronn. This route variant includes a short, challenging trail shortly before reaching the high point near Maulbronn. Those who prefer not to ride it can follow the path downhill and then make a sharp left onto a long, steep paved climb.

After Maulbronn, the route continues on the Stromberg-Murr cycle path, with the following section to Vaihingen-Kleinglattbach following its course.

Passing Vaihingen station, the route goes through Illingen, Lienzingen, Ötisheim, and Dürrn, then back to the Hohberg and from there back to Pforzheim-Eutingen.

The tour covers various surfaces (asphalt in all conditions, unpaved paths, gravel roads), mostly on field and forest paths. A gravel or cyclocross bike is recommended. A touring bike or hardtail MTB will also suffice if necessary.
