Oberkirch Vine Landscape NußbachPhoto: Renchtal Tourismus GmbH
Along the Ortenau Wine Trail, there are two wine loops in Oberkirch that connect additional scenic and culinary highlights to the main path. Viewpoints, chapels, or wineries invite you to explore.
The route is signposted.
The legendary wine loop leads through the Weilerwald to the Waldparkplatz Nesselried, from where the ascent over the Illental begins and a beautiful panoramic view of forest and vineyards opens up. The hike continues through deep forests, past the natural monument "Kammeri Bettlad", to the Devil's Chapel with magnificent views over the Bottenau valley and the Rhine plain up to Strasbourg Cathedral. After the Münsterblick, the path leads to the St. Wendelin pilgrimage chapel and from there the descent into the Herztal begins.
