Pilgrim walks in Rastatt

Pilgrimage path with a length of 3.6 - 5 km (depending on the starting point in Michelbach).

Demanding, long but also very beautiful route with some strong ascents and descents.

Long and especially from Nellele challenging stage with ascents and descents to Neuseier and Bühlertal. Demanding climb to Windeck Castle (hotel and gastronomy) then quite comfortably to Neusatzeck to the monastery as a place for overnight stay and source of strength.

Especially due to the length, a quite challenging tour.

The third section of the Baden Way of St. James from Gaggenau to Steinbach. A technically very pleasant and scenically great stage to walk with only a few slightly more demanding climbs. The highest point of this tour with approx. 400 m elevation gain is already reached in the first third of the route. Since the route passes by the Merkur valley station, there is the possibility to take the rack railway there to Baden-Baden's local mountain to enjoy a wonderful view from over 660 m above sea level over BAD and the Black Forest mountains. Due to this additional time effort, it is therefore advisable to conclude the tour in BAD. Longer descent to Lichtental Abbey, then a section along the Lichtentaler Allee by the Oos river, along the Fremersberg and towards the end of the tour reaching the magnificent Baden-Baden Rebland with grand views from this magnificent wine-growing region. The end of the actual tour with a detour to BAD-Steinbach with the Jakobuskirche (St. James Church).

Along the edge path from Waldprechtsweier to Gaggenau, relatively low elevation differences, very easy to walk, relaxing, partly with a nice view from the edge path into the Rhine plain as well as into the front Murg valley. Overall a fairly easy tour to walk. Due to the relatively low elevation differences and the well-walkable paths in the first two stages Ettlingen-Waldprechtsweier and this stage, it is also possible to combine these two partial stages into one stage of about 27 km. There are practically no dining options on this section until the destination Gaggenau. No villages are directly crossed on the tour itself. Information regarding places and accommodations can be found at: In Gaggenau itself, there are practically no overnight accommodations. However, Gaggenau is excellently connected to the regional S-Bahn network as well as the bus network of the Karlsruhe Transport Association (kvv.de). Thus, surrounding towns regarding accommodations can be reached in a short time: Especially the towns of Kuppenheim and Gernsbach as well as Rastatt. gaggenau.de murgtal.org kuppenheim.de rastatt.de gernsbach.de As well for general information: badische-jakobusgesellschaft.de

The northern extension of the Badische Jakobsweg to Ettlingen is completed... From Ettlingen, a little over 13 km to Waldprechtsweier in the Karlsruhe district. The route passes through the center of the Baden city as a gateway to the Alb Valley/Northern Black Forest and then, without major elevation changes, follows the Saumweg (pilgrim's shell and blue lozenge of the Black Forest Association) along to Waldprechtsweier. Here, the sections to Gaggenau/Baden-Baden (Steinbach)/Sasbachwalden/Offenburg/Schutterwald and from there to Breisach connect. Dining options on this first section are only available at the destination Waldprechtsweier: e.g., at Campingpark Bergwiesen (Campingstüble) or Waldenfelsstüble at the Waldenfels Hall/Mini Golf and Leisure Facility (Talstrasse 41 b). Accommodation options: In Waldprechtsweier so far only Campingplatz Bergwiesen or in Malsch (bus connection from Waldprechtsweier) Hotel auf der Bühn or various private accommodations.

The third section of the Badischer Jakobsweg from Gaggenau to Steinbach. A technically very pleasant and scenically great stage with only a few somewhat more challenging climbs. The highest point of this tour at just under 400 meters above sea level is already reached in the first third of the route. Since the route passes the Merkur valley station, there is the possibility to take the cog railway there up to the Baden-Baden local mountain to enjoy a wonderful view over BAD and the Black Forest mountains from over 660 meters elevation. Due to this additional time expenditure, it is advisable to end the tour in BAD; otherwise, there is a longer descent past the Marienkapelle with a nice view, to the Lichtental Abbey, then a stretch along the Lichtentaler Allee along the Oos, along the Fremersberg, and towards the end of the tour reaching the splendid Baden-Baden vineyards with magnificent views of this magnificent wine-growing area. The end of this section includes a detour to BAD-Steinbach with the Jakobskirche. Accommodation options available in Steinbach or in the neighboring towns of Varnhalt, Neuweier, and of course also in Baden-Baden, including Lichtental Abbey and the Baden-Baden Youth Hostel.
