Well signposted, relatively unknown circular hiking trail. Unfortunately, at one point the sign disappeared into a hedge, and towards the end one was missing in the middle of a field. Due to the proximity to the Selz, the path was quite muddy, and at one point it was well under water. I would recommend the tour for spring or early …

The ViaNatura is a hiking trail through the middle Selz valley. The trail crosses the Hahnheim district and follows the course of the Selz in sections.
Wildly romantic insights into different biotopes, the Hahnheimer Bruch bird sanctuary and the typical vineyards.

Still feeling a bit under the weather from last night, today's motto was: short drive and minimal elevation gain.

That's how we ended up on the ViaNatura trail. Since I didn't find it particularly appealing, I'll stick with the official description today:

Today I wanted a short, local hike, so I chose the ViaNatura, which I know mostly from cycling.

It was a rather dull walk under a gray sky. The recommendation rate for this time of year is rather low.

Via Natura Hahnheim 🌾🐦

The circular hiking trail along the middle Selztal promises a lot of nature. The FFH area at Hahnheimer Bruch is a resting place and breeding area for rare bird species.

The paths were not always passable today, there was a lot of water on them in places and so an alternative route had to be taken. …

A wonderful tour, especially in winter.

The weather was of course ideal. It can stay like this until March.

I was looking for something today to protect my bones - since my knee isn't working as it should again, the final surgery date for the joint replacement is set for next week - but that's just by the way, hence my choice for the via natura.
It's an easy route, almost straight ahead, a small moderate incline and that's …
