Fassbodentour 1

The starting point of the circular route is Ludwigsplatz in Bad Bergzabern, which you can easily reach from the train station via the pedestrian zone. From here, follow the route markings of Fassbodentouren 1 and 2. Via Schlitt, Petronella, and Friedrich-Ebert streets, you leave the spa town and reach the high trail above the town on the outskirts. On the asphalted service road, you then cycle about 7 km eastwards up to the height of Dierbach. Here you turn right, following the Fassboden symbol no. 1, and ride through the villages of Dierbach and Niederotterbach to Steinfeld. Along the railway line past Steinfeld station, you reach Kapsweyer after another 2 km. In Kapsweyer, turn left towards Bienwald. On an unpaved service road, you first go 2 km south until you meet the Pamina cycle path, where you turn right towards Schweighofen. In the village, turn right onto the main street and after 400 m turn left towards the vineyards. On this section, you cycle through the vineyard landscape past the small settlements of Haftelhof and Heidenbrunnerhof until shortly before Oberotterbach. The last part then leads you directly along the edge of the Haardt on the German Wine Route cycle path back to your starting point in Bad Bergzabern.
