Churches - Monasteries - Kinzig

Along this route you will be made aware of churches, chapels and monasteries. Some of the houses of worship are open as cycle path churches.

Parallel to the cycle path runs the Kinzigtal Jakobus Way along the river.

The route is based on the Kinzigtal cycle path, which runs from Freudenstadt to Offenburg, but can also be travelled further to the Rhine at Kehl-Auenheim.
The Kinzigtal cycle path starts at Freudenstadt station. We guide you on the well-signposted route, but offer some detours.

• In Freudenstadt to the market square with the remarkable town church, then to the Catholic Taborkirche.

Other worthwhile detours:

• from Schenkenzell to Wittichen monastery
• in Wolfach to the Jakobus chapel
• in Hausach to the Protestant church, the Catholic church of St. Mauritius, and the village church
• between Hausach and Fischerbach to the Martins chapel
• to the St. Michael's church in Fischerbach

The destination is Haslach im Kinzigtal. Here at the station you can catch the Black Forest railway towards Offenburg or Konstanz.

The Central/North Black Forest Nature Park offers a brochure "Kinzigtal cycle path for all". (PDF version here)
