The location of Grafenberg is ideal for outdoor activities such as hiking or cycling. In spring and summer, the meadows blossom colourfully and offer a beautiful panorama. Hikes through the Rammert nature reserve with its steep cliffs and deep valleys and along the Jakobsweg (Way of St. James) are particularly recommended.

Grafenberg also has a lot to offer culturally: In the historic old town you will find numerous half-timbered houses from the 16th century as well as Hohenentringen Castle, which is considered one of the most beautiful castles in Germany.

For culinary delights, local specialities such as Maultaschen or Spätzle are served in the cosy restaurants. A highlight for wine lovers is the annual wine hike in September along the Neckar at sunset.

In case of bad weather, you can head to the Beuren open-air museum, where you can gain an insight into the life of past generations, or visit the Sonnenbühl cave worlds - an underground labyrinth of passages and caverns.

Whether you are looking for relaxation or want to be active - Grafenberg is definitely worth a visit!

    Abwechslungsreiche Runde mit mehreren Highlights. Der Jusi am Schluss ist natürlich die Krönung! Hier muss man allerdings nochmal ziemlich steil hoch, bis man die tolle Aussicht genießen darf. Nach dem steilen, alpin anmutenden Abstieg ist der restliche Rückweg dann sehr entspannt.

    Ein schöner Rundweg hauptsächlich auf offenen Wegen. Für Familien mit Kindern ab 6 Jahren geeignet. Bei Sonnenschein liegt der (fast) gesamte Weg herrlich in der Sonne. Etwas mehr Zeit einplanen, wenn Kleinkinder dabei sind.

    Tolle Runde, obwohl die Strecke viel an der Straße entlangführt (was ich persönlich nicht so gern mag). Man hat einen fantastischen Blick auf die Alb!

    Sehr schöne Runde über den Metzinger Weinberg zum Florian und durch den Exotenwald wieder zurück nach Metzingen. Nur der Weg durch die Stadt ist nicht gut ausgeschildert und auch nicht besonders schön.
