The small, idyllic place is exposed on a hill and is definitely worth a detour. A visit to the castle is a good idea and the falconry air show is …

With almost 700 meters of elevation, it's pretty tough but beautiful. Some gravel paths to ride on. Not so easy to ride with saddlebags. Signage is pretty good so far 👍. I recommend taking food with you. There are hardly any places to buy food or have a rest stop.

Not as spectacular as the blue butterfly, but nice to drive and hardly any traffic.
In contrast to the Altmühl, the Tauber has a clear origin and begins there as a small trickle

Very few cars seen on this day.
I didn't think I'd get to the source of the Tauber again, you're really not missing anything.
Wallhausen doesn't even fit in with the other villages. Everything is spruced up and the whole village looks "new".
Does anyone know why this is the case?

A really nice tour. After rain, the forest paths are quite exhausting. Gastronomy only partially available or open.
