This tour is all about beautiful views and beneficial refreshments. And by that we don't (only) mean the delicious Baden wines that are waiting for you as a little temptation on the way in the various wine towns. You'd better save that for after the tour. But you can still refresh yourself on the way: The route leads you through the depths of the Black Forest past many mineral springs - and a test sip is highly recommended from a sporting point of view.

It starts in Kniebis, or at the pass of the same name. From here you first drive rapidly downhill to Oppenau. It is quite possible that some sweaty racing cyclists will meet you: The Oppenauer Steige is a popular sporting challenge in the area. Through beautiful Baden wine towns, the route continues relatively flat via Offenburg to Biberach. Shortly afterwards you will reach Zell am Harmersbach, where you can take a break. There you can look at an old Black Forest house and find out about the old, traditional Black Forest rafting culture. Or you just take a rest to be ready for the much more demanding part of the tour that now follows.

The last part is tough and comes up with three crisp climbs. The first takes you to the Lochberg, which has a rather rustic reward with its snack bar. In Bad Peterstal you can refill your bottles at a mineral spring and look forward to the next ascent that leads up to the Freiersbacher Tor. One more descent, then the grand finale begins: the long driveway on a road with little traffic back to Kniebis. The goal is right at the Kniebishütte, where you absolutely deserve your glass of wine as a reward!

Hornbrunnen

Highlight • Natural Monument

It is quite possible that you will run out of water on the Oppenauer Steige. But fortunately there is the Hornbrunnen about halfway.

Stoppomat Oppenau (Renchtal)

Highlight • Rest Area

The principle of the Stoppomat is simple: At the beginning of a time measurement, you draw a card from the starting house, write your name on it and stamp it. Then you make sure that you kick towards the goal as fast as you can. At the top you stamp again, then you throw the card into the box provided. It is emptied once a week and the times are entered into a database. In this way you can sympathetically measure yourself manually with other drivers - without GPS.

A wonderfully demanding mountain classification begins here in Oppenau: 655 vertical meters spread over 7.2 kilometers and a maximum incline of 18% - then you know what you have achieved!

Oberkirch Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

The old town of Oberkirch attracts with its picturesque and historic half-timbered houses, remains of the city wall and fortifications, fountains and small monuments, the former provost building of the All Saints' Monastery, numerous restaurants, cafés and much more. It is worth strolling through the old town to enjoy the flair.

Bottenau Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Beautifully designed bike path through Bottenau. At the end of Bottenau, the cycle path joins the road and the last two kilometers to Durbach have to be covered on this. The road, which is now noticeably steeper, winds its way through the vineyards in a much more winding way from here - there was simply no more space for a separate cycle path.

Löcherbergwasen Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The snack bar at the Loecherbergwasen has now achieved cult status, and not just because the landlady often adds a duplo to the order. The lady has been young for a while and is still up there every day from about 10.00 a.m. to about 6.00 p.m. and serves with her very own charm - coffee, cake, cold and warm dishes. It's very cozy and tastes great.

Good entertainment is always guaranteed. Guests from near and far quickly bond and there is always something to laugh about. I can really only recommend making a detour here.

The very special ambience right at the apex of the road to Peterstal attracts many mountain bikers and hikers here. There are always enough parking spaces to start hiking and cycling tours in the region.

Freiersberger Gate

Highlight • Monument

The 755-meter-high pass road over the Freiersberg is a beautiful connection between the Kinzigtal valley via the Wolfachtal valley to the Renchtal valley.
