Are Badgers Killed For Shaving Brushes

through the pedestrian zone of S-Bad Cannstatt (Part 2) circular route from Stuttgart

went in the post from 10/15/2010, it is the first part of the walk through the pedestrian area of Stuttgart-Bad Cannstatt. Today is the second part of the series. This is the area west and south of Market Street.

starting point for the walk can be the station Bad Cannstatt, a train station, whose fate now in the weeks and months is completely open. If the Stuttgart 21 project realized, would the station Bad Cannstatt, after all, the station's largest Stuttgart city district in importance . Lose Many trains calling there today, would then pass to Bad Cannstatt. However, an alternative approach would met, such as the development of the Stuttgart etappierbare head station, would the station Bad Cannstatt before a great future. Then that station would be not only a hub for many regional trains. The new airport express train then held in Bad Cannstatt, before deciding on the Neckar valley and a tunnel from the east reached the airport's existing station. Yes, it would be in a later stage of development, even possible that ICE stopped on a direct connection between the North Station and the railway station Bad Cannstatt Bad Cannstatt. More expansion of the rail junction Stuttgart on recent developments there are on my blog http://s21irrtum.blogspot.com


Leaving the station Bad Cannstatt through the main exit and continue straight in the Bahnhofstrasse, which is is a pedestrian zone.

This work of art (large sculpture "rail pile, built in 1985) is located between the station and the pedestrian area of Bad Cannstatt rail road.
At the end of the railway crosses the road a bit confusing Wilhelmsplatz using the pedestrian lights and finds out in the market street.

in the market street to get to the peas well. Former Federal President Richard von Weizsacker has even said that he had once stood for the little boy on the fountain model.
One market road continues to the end.

The building was built in 1977 attempted Market Street No. 59, to fit into the historic architecture of the market street. These include the gabled design, the eaves, the roof outline and projections of the equipment at each floor.
At the end of Market Street one turns left and goes over the Thaddeus-Troll place to Klösterle.

The 1463 was built in 1982-84 and renovated Klösterle is considered the oldest residential building in Stuttgart.
From Klösterle you go to the south continue to pedestrian reserved areas and reached after a short time the Brählesgasse.


The Brählesgasse offers almost more historic buildings than the market street.
About Brählesgasse you can get back on the market street. Then you go through but the Brählesgasse back and then keep to the south to the alley peas well. There it is left to the market street. In the market street one turns to the right. The additional right turn lanes are also worth exploring. Among them is the Felgergasse the Felgerhof.

Felgerhof When you see a group of the former city wall of Bad Cannstatt.
Now it goes back to William Square, where it can continue to take the light rail. Or you can continue through the station road to the train station of Bad Cannstatt.

Obertürkheim to Fellbach

This is already the third post about a stage of the Stuttgart circuit hike in this blog. Today is about the section of Stuttgart-Obertürkheim up to Fellbach. This section is 6.8 km long, the Route is a height difference of 150 meters to cope. The trail section leads to a larger extent by vineyards and gardens.

A bit is the sign of the Stuttgart circuit hike its age. A refresher or better still a new concept for the signs would be required. If you have some diversion related to the timing issues, the right way.

starting point is the S-Bahn station Obertürkheim. Follow the road north to the Göppinger Otto-Hirsch-bridges. There, you meet the Stuttgart Loop Trail, which comes from the left of Hedelfingen ago. Now it goes straight over the road Imweg (on the left hand side). At the bus stop, cross the mountain road season Imweg right and follow the mountain road season, until you reach a short flight of steps the church gates.

Man walks follows the church to the left up. Right above the street, a Protestant church of St. Peter (late Gothic, 1484), which is surrounded by a cemetery. Continue straight one reaches the vineyards.

view of the vineyards on a portion of S-Obertürkheim, the Stuttgart port is located in the center.
Now, keep to the right, slightly uphill road leading. In foresight can be seen in the vineyards already the next target, the Dautenfels. This is a massive rock from room sandstone, which is now designated as natural monument.

Monument Dautenfels in the vineyards between the upper and Untertürkheim, the head of the rock is a lookout point with benches.
At the beginning of the Dautenfels be diverted to the top right off the road and climbs a staircase up to the head of the rock. The top one comes back to a vineyard path. Keep to the left, at the first branch a few meters later, keep to the left, leading uphill road, at the second junction, keep to the left branch. The road now leads through vineyards and gardens later in the saddle between the Mönch mountains and the Württemberg.

In October, the grapes hang in the vineyards.
In foresight can see the top of the monk's.
Württemberg is located opposite the chapel with the grave.
takes from the semi circular route from the Stuttgart a little detour to three rooms. Take the leading up to the left Way. Always going straight ahead you come to the viewing platform on the mountain monk (see the post from 11/08/2010).

It circles the top of the monk's and eventually comes back to the saddle. Now, climb on the opposite side by a few feet, but then diverted left onto the paved road. This path leads down slowly, at an evacuee over, connects to Württemberger road, the S-Untertürkheim with S Rotenberg.

Cross the street and go straight ahead. The path leads through gardens and sports fields by round. Slow is the way a curve to the right. Before a power line , turn on the paved road turns left and climbs through two holes in the gardens of Kappelberg next ridge. There you cross the city limits to Fellbach. Later, it goes slightly downhill and you reach the Untertürkheimer road. They were walking with the aid of a pedestrian traffic light system. Behind you during the course of Esslinger road straight ahead. Finally we reached the tram stop Schwabenlandhalle (U1).
