Today's stage of the Baden Way of St. James led us out of Wiesloch and past the cemetery. We went through the underpass of the county road and along it for a short distance, then fields lined the path. We discovered the memorial stone of the former Frauenweiler settlement, crossed the A6 on a bridge

Nice little hike along orchards, through the forest and through the vines of the Katzenberg. Also ideal for watching the sunset. There are enough views: into the Rhine Valley to the Palatinate Mountains, to the Fremersberg/Baden-Baden and towards the Black Forest. You can also learn a lot about the different

Start was at the market square in Leimen. We passed the Herz-Jesu-Kirche and picked up a pilgrim's stamp. Along the edge of the forest we continued in the direction of Nussloch. There we made a stop in the caf

From the Wolfsbrunnen it went uphill and downhill again until we arrived at the Schützenhaus. Here we followed the Elisabethaweg to the castle park. In serpentines it went down to the Scheffel Terrace. After a short stay with a view of the castle, we walked past the Karlsschanze back to the old town

We started in Heidelberg's old town and walked over many hairpin bends past the jumps on the upper castle to the Molkenkur, the changeover point for mountain railway drivers. Here the path went under the railway, crossed a downhill track several

Aleks has wanted to show me the St. Anna Chapel for a long time and today we decided to do this short tour. Despite the cloudy weather, the view was impressive, with good visibility you can see as far as the Odenwald and Black Forest. We took a short break after the steep ascent and continued past the

We started the tour in the parking lot below Villa Ludwigshöhe and walked on Villastrasse with the wine trail towards Edenkoben. At the entrance to the town we kept right and at the end of the town left again, where we then hiked through the vineyards towards Edesheim. Past the cemetery we went along
