On the Gäurandweg from Calw-Stammheim to Wildberg

Wonderful Nagold Valley

With the Gäurandweg, the Black Forest Association has created a varied long-distance hiking trail. This route lasts 16 kilometers. The path first leads towards Holzbronn, where the viewpoint of the “Augenblickrunde” is already the first highlight for hikers. Then it goes deep into the valley to the nature reserve around the Gültlinger Lake, which due to its tuff ground being too permeable, no longer has its original depth. In Gültlingen, we can admire the Michaelskirche, an old fortified church that served as a protection church for Holzbronn and Gültlingen. Just outside Gültlingen, we find another interesting feature with the former beer cellar of the Krone inn in Gültlingen. This cellar was converted by the Black Forest Association Gültlingen into a winter quarters for bats. The route continues through the Heckengäu to Sulz am Eck, which is crossed. Over meadows and forests, we reach Wildberg, where we conclude at the Reuthin monastery. Return to Calw is then by the Kulturbahn.
