The viewpoint is located on the Eselssteig between Zeil am Main and Ziegelanger and leads for the most part through and along vineyards and offers hikers a magnificent view of the Main valley over a length of around 5 km.

Winzertreppe (Vinegrower's Steps) with View of the Main Valley

Highlight • Structure

You should be sure-footed here. The stairs are steep and the steps vary in height. Sturdy shoes and not much shopping are an advantage here.
The winemaker's stairs can be accessed from both above and below.

Winzertreppe in the Haßberge Nature Park

Highlight • Structure

An adventurous up/down climb over an old staircase that is not DIN-compliant. Surefootedness is required here. When it's wet it can be very difficult. But a great way

September 20, 2023,🍇Abendspaziergang in den Weinbergen🍇

Today we went for an evening walk with a friend in the vineyards near Steinbach/Ziegelanger.

Beautiful how the leaves are already changing color, autumn is here.

Vineyard harvest is in full swing.

Took a beautiful walk in the vineyards today.
Thank God I took the time.
The sun 🌞 and the 🍂🍃🍁 autumnal nature, just beautiful.

Actually, I just wanted to get a Federweißer. Then the 🌞 came out. So off to the vineyards and (first) past the wineries. Surely just a coincidence that the cemetery is right next to an estate. 😄 Probably a reminder to enjoy now. It might not work later... 🍷

We took advantage of the beautiful autumn weather and walked through the vineyards. Since we were traveling with our older dog, we chose the shorter version without Zeiler Käppeli and Schmachtenberg castle ruins.
