Waldachtal, Zinsbachtal and Nagoldtal shape this bike route in the south of the Northern Black Forest. Often, there are only a few meters between the cyclist and the babbling river course.
What a route for cycling, nature and river lovers. And since one river is not enough for us, we have packed three different ones into this circular route. Starting in Nagold, we first ride into the Waldachtal. Here, forest, meadows and fields alternate constantly. Between the slopes, you pass through Black Forest nature - always at your side the babbling streams that invite you to rest and enjoy. The sunny heights are not forgotten either when the route briefly crosses the plateau between Waldachtal and Zinsbachtal via Pfalzgrafenweiler. Here we can let our gaze wander over the peaks of the Black Forest. The Zinsbachtal is pure natural idyll - here you can also lose track of time before heading via Altensteig into the Nagoldtal. However, we do not follow the Nagold river course on the Nagoldtal cycle path but on the parallel route which does not run directly along the road. This way we arrive relaxed at the destination.

The Kohlsägmühle in the Zinsbachtal as well as the Café Wohnzimmer invite you to a short break along the way - whether with drinks, sweets or savory snacks!
