    Hiking

    Plaques with poetic quotations are displayed throughout Eckartsberg. So, in addition to a walk exploring history and nature, we also experience culture here.

    Here you can pause, let the poetry work on you and perhaps also think about some things. Unfortunately, some of the panels are defaced by graffiti.

    Hiking

    South of Breisach's old town rises a small, vine-covered hill with the unusual name Eckartsberg. A castle and a small monastery once stood atop it, but nothing remains of either. Today, however, Eckartsberg offers magnificent panoramic views of Breisach.

    To enhance its cultural appeal, a walking trail called "Poetry Along the Way" has been created around and over Eckartsberg. The trail begins in Marienau, initially circling Eckartsberg, then following the Artur-Uhl-Weg up to the viewpoint on the Eckartsberg Terrace, and finally returning to the starting point via the small western staircase.
