From there first through the village and then through the vineyards past lots of delicious grapes. We continued comfortably through the forest to Starkenburg.

October 2, 2021,Erlebnispfad Wein und Stein – Starkenburg Runde von Heppenheim (Bergstraße)

Today we walked the wine and stone adventure trail near Heppenheim in great weather. The way through the vineyards was really great. Again and again great views, nice opportunities to rest and you could always nibble on grapes for free. From the Starkenburg you have a great view over Heppenheim. After the hike, I would recommend a walk through Heppenheim.

Today, my dear friend @Conny and I headed to the beautiful Bergstrasse in Heppenheim. Leaving the hustle and bustle of the city behind us, we first followed the "Wine and Stone" adventure trail, passing stunning sculptures and viewpoints, including a wine aroma station. 😆 We found the trail fantastic and entertaining!

Today we did the Starkenburg circuit with Sanja and Yasar. It always feels like more altitude than indicated. It was comfortable. And the old town is always worth a visit.

February 9, 2025,Heppenheimer Weinblickweg

Beautiful early spring tour from the book With Spirit and Feet in the Odenwald. Initially steeply uphill - parallel to the Blütenweg on an asphalted path. Descent into the Hambacher Valley and again steeply uphill, now on forest paths through beautiful beech forest. From behind you approach the Starkenburg, partly on the Burgensteig. Beautiful views of Heppenheim ... A detour …
