Mountain biking in the hilly Black Forest, leisurely cycling along the Enz River on the Enztal Cycle Path or riding along our well-developed network of cycling paths and the long-distance cycling routes - this is how rich in contrast you can experience the countryside on your bike!

On top of the Büchenbronner Höhe, which is 607.8 meters above sea level and located southwest of Pforzheim, stands the Büchenbronn lookout tower made of metal. The 26 meter high tower was built at the end of the 19th century and can be climbed via a spiral staircase with 125 steps. When you have reached the top, you have a great panoramic view over the treetops, the Enzkreis, Pforzheim and the northern Black Forest.
