Hiking

The Neckarhaldentor is a medieval city gate dating back to the 14th century. It is located at the entrance to the vineyards and offers a beautiful view over the old town.

Hiking

In the 14th century, the Neckarhaldentor was built as a complementary fortification in front of the city wall. From here, the path leads up to the Esslingen vineyards. The ideal starting point for a wine hike, the path leads via Mettingen to Obertürkheim.

Anyone who comes down the Neckarhalde from the vineyards has to pass through here.
