Cycle path with a view

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

This wide cycle path runs parallel to the main road between Hägendorf and Egerkingen. This means you can cycle quickly and safely between the two places. A special plus is the view of the foothills of the Jura.

Neu-Falkenstein Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

Coming from the Upper Hauenstein there is a great view of the rugged Jura rocks on which the castle ruins sit boldly. Since the route is well paved (06/2019) and leads slightly downhill, you can enjoy the view appropriately.

From Langenbruck to Hagendorf it's really nice with little traffic. The rest of the way there's rush hour traffic, but it's totally OK.

Later in the afternoon, we went for another ride on the eBike. The weather was simply fantastic.
