Rieseberg bypass

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The trail goes around the Rieseberg. Beautiful sections but once or twice it is also very narrow. It goes under a number of sloping oaks and you have to go over a few.

June 9, 2025, New Asphalt Road Between Lauingen and Rieseberg

The K4 motorway between Rieseberg and Lauingen has been resurfaced. No more bumpy roads, just let it roll...

Since mid-May, the section between Lauingen and Rieseberg has had a new asphalt surface, and since May 20th, it has also had three white stripes. On this stretch, the wheels roll smoothly again, and there's no shaking on the right side of the road.

A nice football pitch. With a little luck, a good opportunity for an entertaining break.

If the wind direction is right, there are over 60 to Lauingen and the steeper part starts uphill from the forest
