Baiersbronner T5 Schönmünzach Tour

This wonderful round tour shows you the whole beauty of the Black Forest National Park on mostly wide paths. There are several places to stop for refreshments along the way and the route can be easily adapted to the needs of the drivers.

Trail lovers can turn onto a narrower variant at Hinterlangenbach. With children, for example, you can only drive from the Ruhestein to Schönmünzach. From there there is a train connection to Baiersbronn. Then only one parent has to pick up the car by bike. E-bikers can also have fun on this route. Drivers in good physical condition who do not want to take shortcuts can also start right away in Baiersbronn.

It starts at the national park center at the Ruhestein. You start briefly uphill and then roll mostly downhill to the Seibelseckle. On the way you have great views of the Ortenau and the Rhine Valley. Then it goes downhill rapidly on an asphalt road without traffic. Shortly before the Kesselbach, the route turns right. If you drive to the other side of the stream, you can have fun on a narrow, rocky and often wet trail. If you want, you can also continue in the ford if the water is not too high.

Behind Hinterlangenbach - here you can visit a game reserve if you want - you roll on a wide gravel path always along the Langenbach to Zwickgabel and then on to Schönmünzach. The Flößerweg, where there is also a Kneipp pool, leads you through this forest area. In Schönmünzach you pass the train station and have the opportunity to take the train through the valley to Baiersbronn.

The Tour de Murg cycle path is otherwise only slightly uphill through the valley. To cool down, you can make a detour to the outdoor pool between Schönmünzach and Schwarzenberg or tread water behind Heselbach. After Baiersbronn, the last ascent over the wooded slopes back to the Ruhestein awaits.
