     In the second section of the route, it gets considerably more leisurely and there is time to enjoy the landscape, make a detour to Reinhardstein Castle or the Robertville Lake, where water enthusiasts gather at the beach in summer.

    Author’s recommendation

    A visit to Reinhardstein Castle is always worthwhile;
