Tabak route

From Mörlheim Church, turn left onto Offenbacher Weg towards Offenbach. Follow the signs to the southern edge of Offenbach, then turn left (later a farm track) to Ottersheim. 140 m after the Ottersheim town sign, follow the signposting to the right and with several changes of direction (2 x ground markings) until shortly before Bellheim. Here turn right slightly uphill to the farmstead and continue to Rülzheim. After the descent in the hollow path on the edge of Rülzheim, cross the main road (caution!). Then follow the signs to the right on the cycle path along the main road to Herxheimweyer. The signs lead here out into the fields, later through the forest to the industrial area of Herxheim. After crossing the road at the edge of the forest, follow the cycle path to the right and the signposting through Herxheim to the roundabout near Möbel Gilb. In Herxheim is Villa Wieser, a noteworthy fountain with Herxheim motifs and an ice cream parlor along the way. At the roundabout, cross the road and immediately turn left and after 100 m turn right along the main road to Hatzenbühl. Hatzenbühl is Germany's oldest tobacco-growing community. On the Hatzenbühl Tobacco Circular Route (length: 2 km), which begins at the St. Wendelinus Church in Hatzenbühl, you can learn about the annual cycle of tobacco from sowing through harvesting to drying and weighing. 

From the Hatzenbühl Church at the bus stop, turn right to the west through the forest towards Erlenbach. At Erlenhof, turn right as signposted, following the “Tabaktour” routing through Hayna (beautiful old tobacco barns on the outskirts) to Herxheim. At the roundabout near Möbel Gilb in Herxheim, this time turn left onto the unpaved path along the bypass. After the wooden bridge, turn left. The signposting leads through western Herxheim and later through the fields (possibility to stop at Wagner Ranch near Herxheim) back to Landau-Mörlheim. Through Landau-Queichheim back to Landau station.
