Goldscheuerer Baggersee walks

Near the Pierre-Pflimlin Bridge, between Strasbourg (France) and Altenheim (Germany), the first part of the walk is a nature trail through the heart of the Rhine floodplain forest – the Auenwildnispfad – which allows you to explore one of the last remaining wild landscapes along the banks of the Rhine, where the river still shapes an environment rich in biodiversity. You’ll cross wooden footbridges, traverse small branches of the Rhine, walk over rustic bridges and discover viewing platforms offering beautiful views of the floodplain forest. Information boards explain how this unique ecosystem works and introduce the local wildlife: birds, amphibians, insects and beavers all find refuge here. The second part of the walk then alternates between forest paths, trails along the banks of the Rhine and the ‘Goldscheurer Baggersee’ gravel pit, all in a peaceful, shaded setting.
