Key facts of the tour
This hike is a feast for the eyes and the palate and provides lots of interesting facts about the rural culture of fruit growing. The hiking trail leads through typical orchards with apple and pear orchards as well as special crops such as hazelnuts and walnuts. In spring, the blossoms are a delight for the senses, in late summer and early autumn you can nibble on the fruit. Look out for the markings with the yellow ribbon. The hiking trail is equipped with information boards that provide background information as well as anecdotes from the region.
