A new corner! I've wanted to see the Neckar Loop for a long time and this tour also includes the Käsbergkanzel. So let's go! I also chose the tour because the weather in the Heilbronn area is said to be sunnier than on the Alb. So we drove off and the sun was our companion, sooo wonderful! But hey, what was that? Hardly turned to the parking lot (the tour showed a point, there was no parking far and wide! So I chose this parking lot - I didn't think it was that good - I did the tour from the Heilbronn side) So and now? Normally, the tour first goes to the Neckar loop....but there was thick fog...we would have seen nothing there, nada, nothing, zero. You can reschedule! So I turned the tour around and we started walking. At first it was a bit scary because of the fog....but then the sun came out!😍 We were all alone on the road, beautiful forest paths, yes even beaten paths, until we arrived at the Liebenstein lap and my gray brain cells reported to me that I had already sung there in the castle chapel...at a christening...jesses, felt like forever ago.🥰😎. Then it went on and from there we only ran on asphalt. It also went a longer distance through Ottmarsheim, that was less interesting, doesn't matter, just wanted to say it. And then it also goes along the busy road, you also accept that, but it's just not that great. But the view there is great and also the many vineyards. Great wine region!😎 After what seemed like an eternity on asphalt, we came up a few steps onto a vineyard path, where Zoya briefly had problems because there were several bars. But the Zoya masters everything. I had a little gasping, because it was really very narrow and there was also oncoming traffic auuand very steeply down...huuuuuiiii...but very nice! And then you stand at the Käsbergkanzel... which I imagined to be bigger, and of course there was something going on... still a small highlight, the view of the Neckar loop is just great! Then it goes up the steep sting with many narrow stairs....nothing at all for my heel...but there was no other way...then the path runs on gravel and at the end asphalt again until we reach the parking lot again were...it was packed...because from there you can also get to the rock gardens. Zoya sleeps the sleep of the just and prepares for tomorrow...she'll be FIVE.😍😍 And I'm waiting for Tuesday, when I have a doctor's appointment and I hope that there is something else I can do or hope that this doctor can help me....and yes...I know....that was it no rest weekend....I know, I know, I know.....I'm not whining today and just suffering quietly.😂🙏🏻😎 I send you my best regards and wish you a nice Sunday evening and tomorrow a good start into the week 🙏🏻☘️🌸💫🙋♀️🐾
Small modification of the original route, use rain breaks wisely😜🤣

The trail is in catastrophic condition in places! The section from Liebenstein Castle is impassable: a trail through a nettle forest, then (after crossing the golf course) you have to "battle" through man-high undergrowth and thorny branches. We then found another route and added about 3 km.
