Nice narrow road with little traffic. Very nice to ride.

It's not really a highlight, but there's no other way to draw attention to it. As of September 2025, this section of the trail isn't easy to navigate. It's quite steep, and the gravel is rough and deep. With a mountain bike, especially an eMTB, it's no problem; for all other bikes, it's more of a push-along section.

From my own experience, I highly recommend family trips and the Railway Adventure Day. The Öchsle Railway staff are very professional, and you get a fascinating insight into the operation of a railway.

A very beautiful, tranquil pond in the middle of the forest. A small bench for a break along the path and a short trail up the slope for a better view of the pond.

The weir upstream is being redesigned, and there will be quiet riverside areas with swimming spots. This could be completed by 2025. There is still a bicycle diversion sign in the direction of Heimertingen.

Former railway line, converted into a cycle path by the DB. Accordingly, the gradient is very gentle and straight.
