    Sehr abwechslungsreiche Tour. Zuerst am Neckar entlang, dann die Weinberge und für mich das Highlight Schloss Liebenstein. Danach geht es leider etwas langweilig durch die Felder nach Kirchheim. Dafür ist dann die Rückfahrt mit dem Zug problemlos da es einen sehr engen Takt gibt.

    Der Beschreibung kann ich nur voll und ganz zustimmen. Für mich waren die Highlights: - der Ab- und Aufstieg ins/vom Schozachtal - das Kleinod Schloß Liebenstein - das kurze Stück oberhalb des Neckar bei Neckarwestheim

    Nette abwechslungsreiche Runde. Am besten bei trockener Witterung, da es auch schlammige Passagen gibt. Einkehrmöglichkeiten im Sommer am Schlossbiergarten und in der Gaststätte am Golfplatz.

    Haben in Neckarwestheim entgegen der Route wie ein anderer Fahrrad Fahrer empfohlen hatte, die Tour begonnen , dann gab es zum Ende hin nur eine Steigung. die Strecke zwischen Laufen und Nordheim sind wir am Neckar statt an der Landstraße gefahren, mir nicht klar, warum die Route nicht hier lang geht, ist doch viel besser. Sonntags relativ viel befahren.

    Besonders fand ich folgende Teilstücke: - am Neckar entlang zwischen Neckarwestheim und Horkheim - von der Heuchelberger Warte bis Zaberfeld Weniger schön fand ich - das lange Waldstück zwischen Zaberfeld und Cleebronn - die Gegend um Gemmrigheim Bei Unterführung vor Neipperg (von Nordheim kommend) kann man sich leicht verfahren.

    Wir sind die Tour für eher 2 gemütliche Tage angegangen. Die Steigung auf den Heuchelberg und hinter Leonbronn haben wir teilweise geschoben. Sonst kaum Steigungen, so dass man gut voran kommt. Sind in Kirchheim gestartet, dort aber den Neckar entlang, statt die empfohlene Route. Gut ausgeschildert, schöne gut befahrbare Wege und tolle Aussichten. Bis zur Ehmetsklinge gibt es zahlreiche Möglichkeiten einzukehren. Danach längere Durststrecke bis Tripsdrill. Das Restaurant hatte aber so früh nicht offen. In Bönnigheim konnten wir dann wieder Kalorien zum Antrieb unserer Biobikes nachfüllen.

    Schöner Weg mit toller Aussicht vom Wunnenstein. Überwiegend auf breiten Wegen. Unterwegs gibt es einiges zu schauen. Einen Abzug gibt es nur für die Lautstärke der A81, die einen leider fast 2/3 des Weges begleitet.
