Schwarzer Kocher near Unterkochen

Highlight • River

Quiz question: everyone talks about the black Kocher, the white Kocher, but if you ask a local in Unterkochen about the red Kocher, what answer do you get?

Cycle path from Unterkochen to Oberkochen

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The path runs above the B19 and is entertaining. You can be in Oberkochen in no time. The quality of the paths is very good.

Wolfertstal Valley

Highlight • Gorge

One hears again and again, also from Alt-Oberkochenern, that the actual Wolfertstal is not the main valley that leads towards Essingen; Rather, the real Wolfertstal is the steep side valley that runs up at the Fischer Aussiedlerhof through the gorge over the so-called fairy tale meadow to the Volkmarsberg. The name Wolfertstal for the main valley towards Essingen only came up after the war. However, nobody has ever been able to explain exactly and precisely what the actual main valley should then be called.
