We will set off in a very small group of no more than 6 participants. We will conveniently pick you up in an air-conditioned minivan from one of the meeting points in Heidelberg, Weinheim, or Mörlenbach. A wonderful journey through the enchanting Palatinate will take us to the picturesque town of Wissembourg.
We'll begin our day in the charming town of Bad Dürkheim, where we'll discover two of the most exciting sights you simply can't miss! Afterwards, we will drive through the picturesque vineyards to the start of the German Wine Route. Our journey will then take us on to Wissembourg, where we can explore this idyllic town and soak up its atmosphere. For the grand finale, we will hike to Landeck Castle to bring the day to a leisurely close. Let's enjoy this wonderful trip together!
On this fantastic day, our first stop will be in the heart of the beautiful Palatinate region – in Bad Dürkheim. We will take a look at the giant barrel and its rich history, and breathe in the healing salt air at the Gradierbau, one of the longest open-air inhalation facilities in Germany.
Afterwards, a scenic drive along the Wine Route will take us through the stunning Palatinate wine-growing region to its starting point, the German Wine Gate. Situated on a slight hill, this is a place where you can taste wine and enjoy the views.
From here, it's just a short journey to France. The romantic and idyllic village of Wissembourg allows us to experience the charm of Alsace. Together, we will stroll through the alleyways lined by the Lauter River and adorned with vibrantly coloured flowers, and we will marvel at the second-largest church in Alsace. Afterwards, you will have some free time to explore this wonderful town on your own.
To round off the day, we will drive to Landeck Castle, which we will reach after a short, moderate climb. It is a spectacular destination in the Southern Palatinate and offers breathtaking panoramic views across the Rhine Valley to the Black Forest. We can round off the day at the castle tavern.
Full of new impressions and experiences, we'll take you back to your starting point in complete relaxation.
