View of the Heilbronn Vineyards

Highlight • Viewpoint

It is great to stroll along the path and enjoy the vineyards at any time of year. Especially when the sky is clear and clear, you can see far across the Heilbronn region.

The Tannenzapfenweitwerfen station is part of the adventure trail. There are not always enough pine cones in the area, so it makes sense to look for pine cones beforehand. The …

Witch’s House on the Heuchelberger Forest Adventure Trail

Highlight • Mountain Hut

In the fairy tale forest behind the Heuchelbergwarte such a witch's house should of course not be missing. But there are many other stations with nice tasks.

April 7, 2024,Heuchelberger Warte - Familienrunde von Neipperg

Back in our home territory. The three of us, my wife, my 7-year-old daughter and I, went on a lovely family trip to Heuchelberg.
The Heuchelberger Warte with its great and lovingly designed catering area is, in my opinion, one of our top regional destinations.
We parked in the Schwaigern-Heuchelberg forest car park, which can also be found on Google …

October 5, 2024,Familientour am Heuchelberg - mit Einkehr in der Heuchelberger Warte

The five of us enjoyed a great family afternoon with @Diana, @Micki and 2 of our children at Heuchelberg.

We started at the hiking car park between Schwaigern and Neipperg. The path led us along the great panoramic route above the vineyards. Even though the weather wasn't ideal, it stayed dry and we were able to watch the view and …

Today we went again in the surrounding area to the Heuchelberger Warte. A good mix between colorful vineyards, intensely bright forests and the highlight of the Heuchelberger Warte with its great ambience. As soon as we got back from the car, the rain started again

The wild garlic is back!!

It is already shooting out of the ground at the familiar location of a shady and damp spot in the mixed forest. Of course, it will still be a while until the high season in mid/late March.

January 25, 2024,Heimatrunde - Sonnige Wanderung auf dem Heuchelberg

We were dressed too warmly today, that was clear after just a few meters.

We started our “hike in the sun” at the hiking car park at the top of the Heuchelberg between Schwaigern and Neipperg. It was already really spring-like on the south side of the Heuchelberg.
We walk through the vineyards, past the “7 Brothers”, a beech tree …
