Beautiful hiking trail between the light rail stops Kraichtal-Menzingen and Östringen-Odenheim. It leads through meadows and fields as well as along a forest trail through a deciduous forest.
Author’s recommendation
- At Schwanenburg, you can take a detour to the water tower (great view of Kraichtal-Menzingen and the surrounding Kraichgau).
- Be sure to walk to the rest area at the moated castle ruins. Admire the enchanted ruins there, which are a popular photo motif!
- Places to eat in Menzingen: Sports restaurant "Blau-Weiß" Menzingen, Pizzeria "Engel" or in Odenheim "Gasthaus Ochsen", Eiscafé Adria.

The hike starts at the light rail stop in Kraichtal-Menzingen (S 32). From here, the hike goes through the village and runs a stretch along the wall of the former castle park of the moated castle ruins Kraichtal-Menzingen. The paved path now passes meadows and fields to the forest edge "Hohhälde." The path now leads through the forest; here the trail is somewhat steep and filled with gravel, but well walkable. Afterwards, the path leads again over meadows and fields to the "Lourdes Grotto" at the edge of Östringen-Odenheim. You then follow the road through the village. There are also various places to eat in Östringen-Odenheim: "Country inn Zum Ochsen"; "Eiscafé Adria."
