A narrow path through an almost jungle-like area. At times, it's reminiscent of the Amazon. However, the path is wet in some places, so wear appropriate footwear.

A wonderful nature reserve. We saw and heard many different bird species: great spotted woodpecker, robin, nuthatch, and chaffinch.

It's wonderful to immerse yourself in the terraced landscape of the Kaiserstuhl. There are many places to rest, for example, at the Vogelsang Pass there's a shelter and picnic area under the linden tree, open wine cellars in the winegrowing villages (the selection changes, check online), a lake with rest areas just before Ihringen, wine taverns (note opening times), and the excellent range of restaurants (asparagus season in spring and onion tart festivals in autumn).
