Tips from the Community

Micha
July 10, 2026, View of Horse Pastures in Gaggenau-Winkel

Above the Winkel district of Rotenfels, there are numerous paddocks. From the path running above, you have a magnificent view over the paddocks and, depending on the direction of view, the foothills of the Northern Black Forest or the Rhine Valley in the background. In clear weather, the Vosges and the Palatinate Forest can be seen.

Picturesque path through meadows and fields between the small animal breeding facility and the Winklerhof, where bridal couples plant their own cherry tree as a symbol of their bond. Planting can actually be requested from the municipality 😉

Well-rated restaurant with a cozy outdoor area in an idyllic location on the outskirts of Winkel, surrounded by horse paddies.

The striking manor house was built in 1839 on the site of the farm, which was first mentioned in 1216 as a granary for Herrenalb Abbey. Today (2025), it houses, among other things, a Ukrainian restaurant.
