Nice circular bike route. About half of the route is almost without elevation. Only at the end does it go down once, and then up again.

Mötzingen is located on the edge of the Schönbuch Nature Park and is surrounded by beautiful forests and valleys. The landscape offers numerous opportunities for hiking or cycling tours during the warm season. In winter, you can enjoy a downhill run on the nearby ski lifts or go cross-country skiing.

One of Mötzingen's best-known landmarks is the 16th-century moated castle with its picturesque courtyard and adjacent park, which invites you to take a leisurely stroll. Another highlight are the old half-timbered houses along the main street of the village - they give an impression of what it used to look like.

Culturally interested people should definitely visit the local history museum: It displays exhibits on the history of the village as well as interesting information on the regional flora and fauna.

For gourmets, Mötzingen also has a lot to offer: Try local specialities such as "Schupfnudeln" (a type of potato dough noodles) or "Spätzle" (a type of Swabian noodle), which are often served as a side dish to hearty meals. The regional wines are also worth a try.

If the weather doesn't cooperate, you can relax in the "Panorama Therme" and take a break from everyday life. The thermal bath offers various saunas, pools and wellness offers for every taste.

In summary, Mötzingen is a destination which is definitely worth a visit due to its picturesque landscape, historical buildings and cultural events. Visit the town in spring or autumn to experience nature at its best and enjoy local specialities as well as traditional festivals such as the annual castle festival or the Christmas market - you will certainly enjoy it!

    Bei der Tour fährt man nahezu ausschließlich auf Radwegen. Diese sind in einem guten Zustand. Die Tour führt durch eine herrliche Landschaft. Die Ortschaften Horb, Rottenburg und Nagold sind es alle Wert, dass man sich etwas Zeit nimmt und sie besichtigt.
