Discover the region

Geographically, Kippenheim is located on the edge of the Black Forest and the Rhine plain. This location makes it an ideal starting point for outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling or canoeing. The best season for this is from spring to autumn.

Culturally, the town has a lot to offer, including the local history museum with a collection of historical objects from the region and Kippenheim Castle as the town's landmark. The picturesque half-timbered houses in the old town are also particularly worth seeing.

For culinary delights, local specialities such as tarte flambée or spaetzle with sauce are a must for every gourmet! Regional wines can also be enjoyed here.

A highlight in the calendar of events is the annual town festival in summer and the traditional Christmas market at Advent time. Here, you can mingle with locals and enjoy the evening with live music and treats.

Even in rainy weather, there are plenty of activities in Kippenheim: How about a visit to the nearby Europapark or a trip to Lake Titisee? Alternatively, you can simply spend the day in a cosy café, enjoying the atmosphere.

However, the most beautiful spot is undoubtedly on the observation tower on the Schlossberg, from where you have a breathtaking view of the town and its surroundings.

All in all, Kippenheim is a place with a lot of charm and versatile options for travellers of all ages. This Travel Guide will give you all the information you need to enjoy your stay to the fullest!

    Dieser Weg ist sehr schön und abwechslungsreich. Es lohnt sich wirklich diesen Weg zu fahren. Auf dem Damm entlang des Rhein und der Altrheinarme kann man die Natur genießen. Ein Stern muss allerdings abgezogen werden, da diese Tour schlecht ausgeschildert ist. Als Themenweg mit nettem Piktogramm als Wegweiser darf man durchaus mehr erwarten. Die Fee lässt sich leider nicht oft blicken. Mit GPS oder der App ist es allerdings kein Problem. Trotz dem Mangel an Beschilderung ist diese Tour zu empfehlen.

    Sehr schöne abwechslungsreiche Tour. Die App bzw das GPS ist unbedingt erforderlich da die Tour spärlich beschildert ist. Eine Powerbank für das Handy ist sehr empfehlenswert.

    Traumhaft schöne Ausblicke! Die Tour macht wirklich Laune. Einziges Manko....relativ viel Asphalt. Durch die tollen Ausblicke (ständig tolle Rundumsichten)und die schönen Einkehrmöglichkeiten absolut zu empfehlen. Wir sind die Tour in gut sechs Stunden (mit Pausen )gegangen.

    Ottenau- Oberkirch ...besonders faszinierend ab dem Baden Badener Rebland. Herrlichste Aussichten auf die Rheinebene, die Vogesen, dem Strassburger Münster und fern der Pfälzer Wald. Süßer Beigeschmack um dieses Zeit sind die reifen Äpfel und Birnenbäume, die Reben, dick voll behangen, nicht, zu vergessen. Leider liegen die Besenwirtschaften meist nicht direkt auf dem Camino und gefühlt 95% Teerstrecke. Kurz: Ein Schmaus für Gaumen und Auge .

    Eine tolle Trainingsstrecke mit einem kurzen Single-Trail-Abschnitt. Die Anstiege sind kurz und zum Teil etwas knackig, aber deswegen ist es ja auch eine Trainingsstrecke. :-)
