Kinzigtal-Radweg (Radfernweg)

Barrier-free long-distance cycle route through the Kinzig valley in the Black Forest from Freudenstadt to Offenburg. The Kinzigtal cycle path is something for real pleasure cyclists and is suitable for everyone thanks to its accessibility. Following the River Kinzig, you cycle through the unique forests, meadows and pastures of the Central Black Forest, past former Benedictine monasteries, glass-blowing factories, impressive castles and much more. Most of the Kinzigtal cycle route is classified as difficulty level 1-2, only the first section between Freudenstadt and Alpirsbach as level 3. The first 24 kilometres to Alpirsbach are partly on singletrack forest paths and the route has quite steep gradients of 8-12%, so it is only suitable for bikes and e-bikes. From Alpirsbach, the cycle path can be used by people with mobility equipment, e-wheelchairs, wheelchair handbikes, therapy bikes and children's trailers. From there, the route continues on asphalted paths with only moderate gradients and occasional inclines of up to 6%. In the Kinzigtal valley, you also have the option of travelling by public transport from one of the 17 train stations and there are always barrier-free WCs, refreshment stops and overnight accommodation along the route.
