    Hiking

    Surrounded by grapevines and vast fields there is a huge, gnarled oak. The tree with its protruding crown is known as 8-village oak and is said to be around 400 years old.

    You have a great view of the surrounding villages, 8 in number. I guess that's where the name comes from ...

    The eight villages are: Ippesheim, Bullenheim, Wässerndorf, Iffigheim, Seinsheim, Hüttenheim, Markt Herrnsheim and Nenzenheim. To commemorate the former importance of the place, the eight-village oak was planted in 1954 with great sympathy from the population.
