Scenic circular route around the Liebersbach valley. Starting from the Juhöhe, it goes in a comfortable up and down over beautiful open spaces dotted with lovely orchards. Since the route mostly follows the hilltops, you always have a great panoramic view (partly to the Rhine plain).

Very beautiful route in and around the valley of the Kallstädter Bach. Although the route is relatively long, it never gets boring, as it repeatedly offers beautiful wide views (all the way to Mannheim!) and new perspectives on the landscape. Especially in spring, when nature comes back to life, the route is a real pleasure.

Short tour with slight and pleasant inclines. Lots of open terrain with wonderful views of the Odenwald hills and down into the Rhine valley. In this area it is several degrees cooler than in the Rhine valley. This is pleasant in summer and in winter it may mean that there is snow here when there is none in Weinheim.
