Naturpark-Radweg Etappe 4 - von Calmbach nach Freudenstadt

Experience the scenic diversity of the Central/North Black Forest Nature Park, its highlights and treasures along the way and enjoy the culinary offerings of your hosts on the 260-kilometre, well-developed cycle route. The fourth stage with the variant over the Sommerberg begins with a short ride on Germany's oldest funicular up the Sommerberg and into the heart of the Kaltenbronn nature reserve. Dense forests, unique natural landscapes and cycling fun at over 900 meters above sea level await you.

The Nature Park Cycle Trail takes you through the most beautiful corners of the northern and central Black Forest. You can expect impressive, diverse landscapes, beautiful little towns and excellent gastronomy - the Black Forest as you would expect from a picture book. The fourth stage is available in two versions, one over the Sommerberg and one through the Enz valley. On the variant over the Sommerberg, you will get to know Germany's oldest funicular railroad and continue at a leisurely pace over the Black Forest heights back to the starting point of the nature park cycle path in Freudenstadt.

There is a lot to discover, so plan your route to suit your mood! On the Sommerberg, you can enjoy the view over the Enz valley once again at the Naturpark-AugenBlick in the mountain station. Right next door is the Black Forest treetop walk, where you can hike over 20 meters above the ground and discover nature at eye level. A thousand-year-old moor awaits you in the nature reserve, which you can learn more about at the Info Center - it's well worth a detour! On the Kaiser Wilhelm Tower on the Hohloh, you can also enjoy views of the Rhine plain all the way to France. The nature park cycle path is also suitable for e-bikers: there are e-bike charging stations along the entire route where you can charge your pedelec battery free of charge.</p
