3-Bäche route (formerly Fassbodentour 2)
Along the Wine Route with magnificent views over the Rhine Plain. Some short, steeper climbs, otherwise flat and continuously paved.
The 3-Bäche route leads you from Bad Bergzabern through the vineyards to Hergersweiler and through the Tiefental valley to Billigheim-Ingenheim. From here, it goes along the Klingbach through Heuchelheim-Klingen to Klingenmünster and from there along the German Wine Route over Gleiszellen-Gleishorbach and Pleisweiler-Oberhofen back to Bad Bergzabern.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION: The cycle path will get new signage in 2025. Please do not be surprised if you see the two different logos, as shown in the pictures, along the route.
Author’s recommendation
Make a detour to Landeck Castle near Klingenmünster, enjoy the view over the Rhine Plain and a small refreshment at the castle tavern!

Safety information
Especially in autumn, you should be aware that fallen leaves on the ground can cover unevenness, roots, stones, or holes on the path. You must expect such path impairments when going on a bike route. If you consider certain sections of the route not passable for you, you should avoid them. Particularly in adverse weather conditions, natural paths can have muddy and slippery sections.

Roadbook
The starting point is the castle/municipal administration in Bad Bergzabern. Coming from the train station, go straight at the roundabout following the signs to the municipal administration/castle. From here, cycle through the town always following the signage until you reach the southern exit of Bad Bergzabern. It continues through the vineyard landscape of the German-French border area up to the Hergersweiler height. Here the signs show you the way left to the village of Hergersweiler. Through the village, continue north until you reach Billigheim-Ingenheim after about 6 km. Here you will join the Klingbach cycle path and follow it by turning left and riding over Ingenheim and Klingen with views of the Palatinate Forest and the Landeck ruin, up to Klingenmünster. Don't forget to enjoy the beautiful view of the Rhine Plain from time to time, as now you will proceed along the Haardt ridge on a gently hilly route through the towns of Gleiszellen-Gleishorbach and Pleisweiler-Oberhofen back to Bad Bergzabern, the starting point of your route.
