Road cycling without annoying motorbikes on great asphalt in the middle of the (black) forest!

Kniebis Pass (942 meters)

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Many paths lead up to the Kniebis, Freudenstadt's highest-lying "district". For example, via the asphalted Salzleckerweg, or from Mitteltal via the Ellbachstraße, which is closed to motorized traffic.

The road from Bad Rippoldsau up is also nice to ride with a road bike. And with good long-distance visibility, you are even rewarded with a view of the Swiss Alps, which are almost 200 kilometers away from here (as the crow flies). In short: A significant traffic hub for road bike traffic in the Northern Black Forest.

View of Mummelsee Hotel

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great panorama, but unfortunately a lot of traffic on the Black Forest High Road, especially on weekends. So it's best to come here during the week.

Expanded suitable for racing bikes. In places a bit nooks and crannies, but well signposted. And scenic.

There was too much going on on the B500, so I went down from the Ruhestein to Mitteltal and from there via the Kniebis back to FDS.
