    Tips

    Due to the vegetation (including very small trees) and stone formations, the Vogelbergsteig has a very special character.
    From the “Pulpit” you have a great view of the Danube loop below you.
    If you're lucky and look closely, you'll come across an green lizard. This is also where the name of a grape variety (emerald wine) comes from.
    Nice to combine with the apricot blossom, but also in late autumn (mid-October) with the beautiful golden yellow color of the vine leaves.

      Slightly demanding path for mountain hikers. In my opinion, not recommended in damp weather (risk of slipping), if you don't have a head for heights (the wall under the path sometimes drops almost vertically), with bad shoes. However, the climb is secured with ropes at the exposed points. Has a touch of adventure for non-climbers like me. Great views and a great experience.

        Beautiful path, easily manageable despite fear of heights 😊
