Tour de Murg - biking for the family

On the Tour de MurgThe „Tour de Murg“ is one of the most beautiful cycle-tours in the Black Forest. From Freudenstadt or Baiersbronn down to Rastatt, a former seat of royal power, you can see a unique landscape. First the course leads through the woods and valleys and then through narrow ravines. You will see magnolia trees, chestnut- and pine tree-woods.

You can drive the well signed course both down the valley and up the valley. For families with small children we recommend the tour down the valley.

During the swimming season you can visit a lot of swimming pools next to the course. On arriving in Gernsbach the course leads you directly through the heart of the historic part of the town, the market place. There around the fountain are a lot of cafés, restaurants, bars and shops.

On Sundays additional wagons of the regional train move you to Freudenstadt or Baiersbronn and you have the possibility for a pleasant on-day-tour.

You get an information brochure of the „Tour de Murg“ in every Tourist Information Centre in the Murg Valley.
