Hiking
In Eschbach, whose inhabitants have the nickname "Esel" (donkey) because in the past the inhabitants used to bring goods to Madenburg with pack donkeys. For the 750th anniversary celebration, there is a special experience tour through the village. 30 artistically designed donkeys have been positioned all over the village. Each one a unique original. 'Small' and 'Big Artists' have lent a hand to individually design the donkeys.
The "Eschbacher Esel" is a likeable ambassador for the quality wine-growing community and rightly takes center stage in the anniversary year. The exhibition brochure lists the location and name of each donkey.
