You can marvel at many large sequoias, various birch collections, very rare types of orchids, etc. on this circular route. Wild garlic grows very extensively everywhere …

Continue on the very beautiful nine-linden tree path past wild garlic forests to the Lenzenberg Inn. On the vineyard slope, through a hollow alley to the Martinshöfen and back …
