If you want to add a detour to the tour after Pforzheim, you can visit the Hohe Warte viewing tower, which is around 4 kilometres off the route. Meanwhile, the original route leads a short distance along the Nagold. A stop at the Kneipp facility "In den Bernhardswiesen" in Langenbrand offers you the opportunity to cool off on the rest of the route.
Shortly before Calmbach, you reach the highest point of the tour and are rewarded with a beautiful view of the valley. After the descent to Calmbach, you cross the Kleine Enz and follow the Große Enz for the last few kilometres to Bad Wildbad.
