Mölsheim walks

The Leininger Burgenweg is a circular walking route in the northern Palatinate Forest. Just under 22 kilometres long, it links Neuleiningen, Altleiningen and Battenberg. Places to stop for refreshments include the castles at Altleiningen and Battenberg. Several rest areas along the route invite you to take a break at your leisure.

A leisurely circular walk on the Donnersberg, the highest point in the Palatinate. The walk starts and ends at Dannenfels.

Bad Dürkheim – in the heart of the Palatinate on the German Wine Route. A circular walk in the footsteps of the Romans, the Leiningers and the Benedictines.

A city walking tour that begins and ends in Mannheim’s Neckarstadt district. The route takes us along the Neckar, Rhine and Old Rhine, at times through beautiful, secluded woodland. The final section of the tour follows the signposted Industrial Heritage Trail – whilst the scenery here is by no means picturesque, it’s worth allowing extra time to read the descriptions of the industrial monuments at your leisure.

"Nature experience combined with sporty hiking"... this is how the Burgensteig trail is described in the official flyer of the Bergstraße Tourist Association. The Burgensteig trail leads from Darmstadt-Eberstadt along the heights of the Odenwald to Heidelberg. Along the approximately 120 km, you will pass over 30 historical sights and cross two other well-known trails, the Nibelungensteig near Zwingenberg and the Neckarsteig in Heidelberg. We took the liberty of deviating from the "standard" route here and there. We have put together the stages so that you can get to your starting point and back from your destination by public transport.

The Nibelungensteig is a certified Qualitätsweg "Wanderbares Deutschland" (Quality Trail "Hiking in Germany") that leads from west to east across the Odenwald and thus through three federal states (Hesse, Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg) over 130 km in several stages, some of which are very strenuous, with a total of more than 4,000 metres of elevation gain. Our division differs from the official stages. We have chosen some shorter sections, added a few extra metres and stayed overnight in some different places. When planning your tour, please note that accommodation, refreshment and catering facilities are not always available.
