Treasure Island in the Vine Sea: Geo Adventure Trail

We start at the Brunnenhalle; the signage leads from here up to Michaeliskapelle. At the Wurstmarktplatz, a detour to the giant barrel is worthwhile [1 World records around wine]. We leave the barrel behind and follow the steps to Michaeliskapelle [2 White Gold, 3 Wurstmarkt]. Past it, by the picnic bench [4 Dürkheimer Wine] and at the junction with old sandstone walls [5 Wind protection] straight ahead. The ascent [6 Elements of the vineyard landscape] leads after 200m to a viewpoint on the left side [7 Buntsandstein]. Over the highest point of the Spielberg [8 No Canyon for the Rhine, 9 Limestone], it goes down again [10 Bad Dürkheim on the beach, 11 Romans, after 300m 12 Upright Vineyard] to a T-junction [13 Year in the Vineyard], where we turn right, past the old execution site [14 Creepy Place] and a viewpoint [15 Black Forest view]. At the Roman press [16 Wine production of the Romans], go up left through the "Vine Museum" and then right to the Roman villa [17 Magnificent building]. At the eastern end of the wall, the path goes down, after the parking lot [18 Land consolidation] right, and approximately 750m straight on until we turn left in front of the approximately 7m high loess wall [19 Loess], then follow the path once left and twice right [20 The soil makes the wine] and go up a paved path to the farm road. There [21 Red earth], turn left, after 800m past the almond tree avenue [22 Almonds and climate] and at the next three-way junction left [23 Helmet of Pfeffingen]. Opposite the hamlet "Pfeffingen" we go right [24 Small place with great history] and southwards near the traffic light junction [25 The diverted stream]. There we turn back, return the same way, and after about 100m turn left into the path. This leads to a sandstone wall [26 Old Wine Road], up the path to the left, and at the junction straight back to the Brunnenhalle.
