Kaiserstuhlpfad

Around 22 kilometres long, the trail leads you along the north-south axis over the highest elevations of the Kaiserstuhl. A large part of the route runs parallel to the "Neunlindenpfad" theme trail. This takes its name from the Nine Linden Tower. Along various sections of the trail, which are characterised by different landscapes, you will encounter one or two natural spectacles on your hike.

Around 35 species of orchid can be found in the Kaiserstuhl. The flowering splendour is at its greatest in May and June. Ornithologists and observant hikers will be delighted by a colourful bird - the bee-eater. The bee-eater, with its colourful tropical plumage, is the most exotic bird in the Kaiserstuhl and a special feature north of the Alps. It only nests in particularly dry and warm areas and arrives in the Kaiserstuhl in May before leaving for its wintering grounds in Africa at the beginning of September.
