Of particular tourist relevance are the historic buildings such as Offenau Castle or the 16th century St. Andreas Protestant Church. The lookout tower on the Hohrainhof also offers a breathtaking view over the Neckar valley.

Cultural highlights can also be discovered: The annual wine press festival in autumn attracts visitors from near and far, as does the Christmas market in winter or the traditional fishermen's festival in summer.

If you want to indulge in culinary delights, you should definitely try the regional asparagus - it is grown here and tastes simply delicious! But other regional specialities such as Maultaschen or Zwiebelkuchen should not be missed.

For outdoor activities, hikes through the idyllic vineyards are a must - it is especially beautiful during the grape harvest in September/October. Bicycle tours along the Neckar are also very popular with tourists and locals alike.

And what do you do in Offenau when it rains? Then a visit to the local history museum or a guided tour through one of the historic buildings is recommended - here you can learn a lot about the history of the town!

All in all, Offenau is definitely worth a visit - whether as a day trip or for a longer stay. The charming town offers a lot of variety and is a real insider tip for anyone who wants to get away from the big tourist crowds. A travel guide that you should definitely read!

    Wir sind ab Gundelsheim/Friedhof gefahren, dann erspart man sich die große Steigung zum Ende der Tour. Ein sehr schöne Tour; tolle Landschaft; und bei einer Salz &Sole-Tour, darf es auch gerne mal am Bergwerk und der weiteren Verarbeitung durch ein Industriegebiet gehen. Abzug, - da an einigen wenigen Stellen die Beschilderung nich ganz klar war. Hat aber dank Navigation mit der App nich wirklich gestört. - da die Ortsdurchfahrt Bad Wimpfen mit einer sehr groben Pflasterung niemand benötigt. ( Bad Wimpfen ist wirklich schön, aber nicht mit dem Rad)

    Schöne Tour nur leider, da wir am Neckar entlang zurückgehen wollten, mussten wir ca. 1 Km am Rande der B 27 laufen

    Tolle Radtour, mit wunderschönen Stellen. Die Tour ist auch gut ausgeschildert. Die letzten km gehen jedoch bergauf, was zum Schluss doch recht anstrengend wurde. Man fährt ein paar Mal über Landstraßen, allerdings nur kurze Strecken.

    Abwechslungsreiche Tour mit durchgehender Beschilderung. Allerdings nur für Familien mit schon etwas "raderfahrenen" Kindern da doch häufiger und auch bergauf auf öffentlichen Straßen gefahren werden muss. Tolle Einkehrmöglichkeiten am Wegesrand.

    Klasse Tour mit viel Abwechslung und tollen Einkehrmöglichkeiten. Überwiegend sehr gut beschildert. Highlight für uns war der Abschnitt im Fünfmühlental. Uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen.
