Circular hike from Wendelsheim past two Trulli and along vineyards and orchards to the Strandpfad der Sinne and the ruins of the Beller Kirche. From there we follow the Strandpfad a short distance in the opposite direction to a beautiful small vineyard house with a resting place. Then it continues through the vineyards to another Trullo above a former quarry and from there to the Wendelsheim vineyard tower. Here we have a nice view of Wendelsheim and are soon back at the starting point.
