August 10, 2024,Rottal-Runde über Oberrot und Fichtenberg ab Schwäbisch Hall

We started in Schwäbisch Hall in very nice weather and followed the Kocher-Jagst cycle path towards Wielandsweiler in the Rottal. Then we continued along the Rot to Fichtenberg. Via Gaildorf and along the Kocher-Jagst cycle path back to Schwäbisch Hall.

Very nice tour in a varied landscape. Almost all away from traffic. Only suitable to a limited extent for hot sunny days as there is almost no shade.
