Discover the region

Geographically, the village lies at the foot of the Schönbuch and is crossed by the rivers Ammer and Steinlach. The idyllic landscape invites you to take long walks or hikes. It is particularly beautiful here in spring, when nature awakens, or in autumn with its colourful hues.

One of the most famous sights is Hohenentringen Castle on the mountain of the same name. From here you have a breathtaking view over the region all the way to the Black Forest. Those interested in culture should definitely visit the local history museum, which provides insights into the history of the village.

For culinary delights, traditional inns such as the "Lamm" or the "Schwan" are available. Regional specialities are served here - hearty Maultaschen are an absolute must!

Outdoors fans will also get their money's worth: whether cycling along the rivers or hiking through the Schönbuch - everyone will find their favourite activity here! In summer, the open-air swimming pool with its large sunbathing lawn is a great place to relax.

And what do you do when the weather is bad? How about a trip to nearby Tübingen? There you can, among other things, look at works of art in the art museum or stroll in the historic old town.

In conclusion, Bodelshausen is a real insider's tip with its idyllic location and numerous possibilities for activities. This travel guide is intended to serve as a travel guide and help you make the most of your stay!

    Sicher in der Region einzigartig, nicht nur in der Tourlänge, sondern vor allem durch die Vielseitigkeit, die das Steinlachtal, das Albvorland, den Albtrauf und die Albhochfläche ebenso umfasst, wie Stadt, Streuobstwiesen, Wald, Blumenwiesen, Sehenswürdigkeiten, Kultur, Naturschutzgebiete und vieles mehr. Man lernt außerdem alle - sehr unterschiedlichen - Teilorte der Stadt Mössingen kennen. An nur einem Tag allerdings sehr anspruchsvoll. Lässt sich aber problemlos aufteilen (siehe kostenlose Wanderkarte der Stadt). Weitere Infos: https://www.moessingen.de/Wandern#/article/f2d7e78a-8d31-11ee-b275-00163e2945d0)

    Schöne Rundtour, immer wieder den Blick auf die Burg Hohenzollern. Weitesgehend Asphalt, teilweise Schotterwege.

    Das war eine wirklich nette Tour rund um Mössingen. Es geht ein bisschen viel durch städtische Gebiete aber dadurch sind wiederum die Steigungen auch für Kinder gut machbar. Wir waren ein bisschen zu früh dran, die wundervollen Bäume der Streuobstwiesen blühen noch nicht richtig. Im Sommer oder Spätsommer ist es bestimmt auch eine stimmungsvolle Tour. Coronabedingt hat man leider auch nichts von den zahlreichen Einkehrmöglichkeiten unterwegs. Wir müssen also zu einem anderen Zeitpunkt noch einmal kommen.

    Eine sehr schöne Tour, besonders im Starzeltal im Frühjahr. (Update Mai 2020) Tipp: ab Dusslingen lohnt ein Umweg (Steigung) über Kressbach.

    Super Route, die angegebene Zeit stimmt natürlich nicht. Man braucht ca. 5 Stunden.
