This moderately challenging day hike through the Göppingen district spans 30 kilometers and complements the neighboring Fruit Route. Thanks to its gentle elevation changes, it’s also ideal for families. On both sides of the route, you’ll see the characteristic landscape at the foot of the Albtrauf: the traditional orchard meadows. Cyclists can expect particularly charming views of the imposing escarpment of the Swabian Alb—called the “Blue Wall” by Eduard Mörike—in the open foothills of the Alb.
