From Leiselheim it's short and crisp up a few meters with a subsequent view of the hilly vineyards

Texaspass (Auf dem Eck) switchbacks, Kaiserstuhl

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

The Texas Pass is a great climb from both sides - as usual in the Kaiserstuhl, sometimes a little steeper, especially the Kiechlinsbergen ramp with a little more than 12 percent. This climb is through forest most of the time and is preferable in summer, especially at lunchtime. The hump, which is actually called "Auf dem Eck", supposedly got its nickname because it can get "as hot as in Texas" there.

Ihringer Höhe

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

Nice alternative to drive from Ihringen to Achkarren or Bickensohl. The Rebweg is perfect for racing bikes. Coming from Ihringen, a short 15 percent climb awaits you at the end, while from Achkarren and Bickensohl only a moderate incline awaits you. A little caution on the descents, the path is narrow and although the section is very lightly trafficked, some drivers sometimes come a little faster.

Vineyard Route to Achkarren

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

because it is not very steep and not high, but hardly any traffic, it makes this pass attractive for touring.
In some places high loess walls and caves dug into it, also a lot of beautiful nature all around
