The start at Pfedelbach Castle invites you to enjoy the first moments between historic walls and a well-kept park. A bakery beckons nearby, perfect for a light breakfast or a break on the way back.
The route then takes you out into the countryside, past orchards, through villages, and along the romantic streams that give the tour its name. The trail isn't challenging, but varied enough that you'll never get bored. The region is particularly vibrant around Öhringen. The old town with its half-timbered houses, the Court Garden, and the castle provide a mix of history, culture, and nature.
Towards the finish, the view opens up to vineyards and open fields. The Württemberg Wine Cycle Route winds through the heart of one of the most famous wine-growing towns in the southern part of Germany. Along the way, short stops at one of the playgrounds or in the beer garden at Balko's HEICcamp, where regional specialties are served, are ideal. Arrival and departure can be easily planned by train.

Pfedelbach Castle
Highlight • Castle
With Ludwig Gottfried, the Hohenlohe-Waldenburg-Pfedelbach line became extinct in 1728, and the property passed to the Hohenlohe-Waldenburg-Bartenstein line. The planned extensive Baroque renovation of the building was only partially realized with the new construction of Bartenstein Castle.
The magnificent court chapel was built between 1731 and 1732 under Count Ferdinand of Hohenlohe-Bartenstein.
After the mediatization, the Württemberg district court was located in Pfedelbach Castle from 1806 to 1840.
After the Second World War, the castle served as a poorhouse and fell into rapid disrepair until the municipality acquired the dilapidated building from Princess Clara of Hohenlohe-Bartenstein in 1962 and undertook a comprehensive renovation.
