From Bopfingen, the route goes over the ruin at Flochberg and the Schlossberg back to the Alb ridge. Through the forest, the Albnordrandweg leads to Schweindorf. Through a game enclosure, we enter the Carthusian Valley. From here, the path takes on more the character of a valley trail. Rather below the Alb, it goes to Mönchsdöggingen. We pass the old monastery at the edge of the town and reach the lookout mountain Bockberg (570 m) through the forest. From there, we continue over the Harburg to the town of Harburg (Swabia).

    Wir sind den Weg mit dem Rad gefahren, ich persönlich finde, mit dem Rad ist der Weg gut, allerdings sind einige Stellen nur mit dem Cross oder Mountainbike zu empfehlen bzw. sollte man schon ein E-Bike haben. Wir sind den Weg mit Kindern gefahren, die jetzt auch wieder diesen Weg fahren wollen. Wandern würde ich das nicht, das zieht sich dann schon, aber mit dem Rad ist der Weg sehr schön. Gerade die Aussicht über Heroldingen rüber zur Harburg und die Hexenküche haben meinen Kindern gefallen. Ich fand die Stimmung in den Dörfern sehr schön, die mich immer wieder ins Ries zieht. Unsere Anfahrt ist ca. 1,5 bis 2h, lohnt sich aber immer wieder. Kurz, ich finde den Rundweg für das Fahrrad viel geeigneter.
