The terraced vineyard is maintained and cultivated by volunteers. This cultural and historical gem, the only steep slope vineyard in the Waiblingen district, located at the southern end of the "Unteres Remstal" nature reserve, can thus be preserved.

The historic Vogelmühle (Bird Mill) is idyllically situated on the Rems River within the Lower Rems Valley landscape and nature reserve. It was built in 1864 by miller Lauer, along with a bakehouse. Until the late 1970s, flour was milled and bread sold at the mill, which had been acquired by Karl Vogel in the 1930s. In 1985, the property was auctioned off, and the city of Waiblingen won the bid. The Waiblingen municipal utilities took over the former mill building to harness its hydropower for electricity generation. The building and the turbine were extensively renovated.

The cycle path between Waiblingen Hegnach and Neckarrems has been permanently closed since 2024 due to erosion and landslides. A new route is currently being developed.

- Beautiful path along the Rems River for pedestrians/hikers - The path is closed to cyclists - Nature reserve - There are information signs at the beginning and end of the path (unfortunately, as is often the case, not all bikers follow them 😕 - various bike lanes)!
