Kaltenbronn
Start from the Sarbacher Hotel in Kaltenbronn (Gernsbach). Several large car parks are available, so it's fairly easy to find a space. The car parks are connected by a tarmac footpath.
Ideal hike for a family outing. No steep or technical slopes.
There is a very long wooden pontoon leading to a well-preserved pond.
Pets are allowed along the entire route. The trail is well marked with the option to extend the route.
