The Neckar is a river in Swabian. In a way it is "sacred" to the Swabians. Navigable from Stuttgart-Wangen, where I was born, it winds through Heilbronn to Heidelberg through green meadows and along many steep vineyards. For once, this picture was not created from my own photo template, but from a photo that I accidentally found on the Internet and whose sight immediately fascinated me. It shows the Neckar near Marbach, the birthplace of Friedrich Schiller. Here is also home to the German Literary Archives. On the Neckar it is wonderful to cycle and come through some pretty (and picturesque!) Towns such as Rottweil, Tübingen, Lauffen and also Heilbronn and the world famous and so much visited Heidelberg. And by the way, you can experience a lot of culture and above all the Swabian cosiness! Perhaps a "red" snack in between, ideally a Swabian roast roast with a quarter of a Trollinger in one of the many broom restaurants - then this is refreshment for the soul .......
