Komoot Lists Stuttgart Station Detour as a Tongue‑in‑Cheek Long‑Distance Hike After Fresh Stuttgart 21 Delay

A user’s 1.1‑kilometer route through the Hauptbahnhof works recasts the daily walk as an easy tour.

Overview

  • The listing, created in February 2024, describes an easy 17‑minute walk at roughly 3.9 km/h with photos and a sketched route.
  • Komoot confirmed the entry was posted by an individual user and said it appreciates the humor around the detour.
  • Deutsche Bahn responded light‑heartedly and pointed visitors to the InfoTurmStuttgart exhibition at platform 16.
  • A TikTok video by user “iRonic” recently resurfaced the entry and seeks the original creator as the post draws modest engagement.
  • Deutsche Bahn announced a further delay to Stuttgart 21 last week, offering no new completion date for a project under construction since 2010.
