The first part of the "Poets' Stage" on the Württemberg Wine Cycle Trail through Germany's largest red wine landscape in the Stromberg-Heuchelberg Nature Park.
From the wine town of Heilbronn, the 4th stage leads through the wine landscapes in the Naturpark Stromberg-Heuchelberg and the Zabergäu up to the Hölderlinstadt Lauffen am Neckar.
From Heilbronn, the route descends into the Leintal valley along the striking Heuchelberg ridge. If you don't mind a detour, you can climb the Heuchelberger Warte and enjoy the fantastic view of the Heilbronn region from there.
The route continues up and down past vineyards and the gentle hills of the Stromberg-Heuchelberg Nature Park into the Zabergäu. Germany's largest red wine region is home to the Lemberger grape and impresses with its seemingly endless vineyards and many beautiful viewpoints along the way, which make up for the meters in altitude on this section.
The route continues past Brackenheim, the largest wine-growing community in Württemberg and birthplace of the first German Federal President Theodor Heuss. Numerous refreshment stops invite you to take a break from cycling to sample the regional wines and Swabian dishes.
The last section of the stage to Lauffen am Neckar begins in Brackenheim. Lauffen is known as one of the largest steep vineyard areas in Württemberg. As an excellent southern wine region, there are plenty of exciting wine experiences to discover here too.
The loop through the Zabergäu has been a new part of the Württemberg Wine Cycle Route since 2022. The former route in the Neckar valley is still partly signposted, so please also refer to the GPX tracks.
