Three wineries serve as "pilgrimage stations" along this circular route without climbs through the vineyards between Freinsheim, Weisenheim am Sand, and Erpolzheim.
Vineyard circular route on paved agricultural roads and partially unpaved sections.
The tour is accompanied by the pilgrimage pass, which you can have stamped at the pilgrimage stations along the way when you sample a wine.
The route is not separately signposted.
Author’s recommendation
During and after the wine pilgrimage, the diverse gastronomic offerings in the wine villages of the Freinsheim holiday region are open to you.
The historic old town of Freinsheim with the city wall tour is also interactive via smartphone. Public city tours in Freinsheim are offered from the end of March to October on Saturdays at 11:15 a.m. and from May additionally on Fridays at 6 p.m.
Derived from the technical difficulty and the stamina requirements.

Safety information
Our hiking and cycling paths mostly run on so-called agricultural roads. These are used for agricultural purposes and are driven on all year round by tractors and harvesting machines. We point out that using the paths is at your own risk and ask cyclists, hikers, and vintners to show mutual consideration in the interest of all. The agricultural roads may be dirty due to agricultural traffic. After rainy days and especially in winter, the paths can be wet and slippery.
