The headings ‘Bicycle’ and even more so ‘Mountain bike’ unfortunately do not fit this route at all. I have been riding here every morning for a few months: The path is intensively used by dog owners. When you rush past the owners as a mountain biker, it understandably causes a lot of anger and frustration. This is the wrong route for a sporty MTB tour. My tip for the evening: I ride here in the morning to commute, but in the evening I prefer to detour via Degerloch to the Woodpecker Trail – you can really let loose there.

Through the Tiefenbach gorge leads a wonderful, quite rustic hiking trail, which however should not be walked after rainfall, as it can otherwise become quite muddy. Otherwise, you feel here like in another world, far away from civilization.

An impressive building, the outdoor area with its cast-concrete climbing wall is a definite eye-catcher. There's also food and drink available.

The "Three Wells" are located at the easternmost end of Sindelfingen's city forest, about ten kilometers from Sindelfingen. A municipal circular hiking trail leads directly past them. The spring area is designated a natural monument. The section of forest in which the "Three Wells" are located was transferred from Rohr to Sindelfingen on April 3, 1562, through negotiations by Balthasar von Gültlingen, hereditary chamberlain and steward of the Duchy of Württemberg. The spring itself has been known for approximately 300 years.
