October 30, 2022,🍇 Kaiserstuhl - Neunlindenpfad über die drei höchsten Berge im Kaiserstuhl

End of October at >25 °C. The Kaiserstuhl is calling with its phenomenal views. The starting point is Ihringen. From the station it goes through the village and then the ascent begins. First past the vineyards and a short time later we walk through autumnal mixed forests. Then wonderful views from the Kaiserstuhl and wonderful forests alternate. We pass the …

February 18, 2023,Kaiserstuhlpfad von Endingen nach Ihringen

Carnival, overcast sky and windy - there are definitely not that many people out there. So after a long time I did a real classic again: the Kaiserstuhl path.
On weekends when the weather is nice, there is a lot going on, so I avoid such routes. Luckily today was a lot less busy than expected and I only met …

October 23, 2022,Schwarzwaldverein Freiburg: Drei Gipfel-Drei Türme-Der Neunlindenpfad im Herbst

Today I was allowed to lead a group on the Neunlindenpfad from south to north through the Kaiserstuhl for the Schwarzwaldverein-Freiburg and we enjoyed the impressive autumn colors of the leaves from the three elevations Neunlindenturm, Eichelspitzturm, Katharinenkapelle. Various explanations of the origin and naming of the Kaiserstuhl, the loess hollow paths, what the leaf color is all about and …

October 16, 2022,Neunlindenpfad-Kaiserstuhl

The Kaiserstuhl in autumn is a real feast for the eyes when it comes to the colors of nature. At the beginning of the tour, I walked straight into a street festival in Ihringen, with a band and alphorns... Then later through a loess hollow path to the Lenzenberg and further on a beautiful forest path to the Neunlindenbuck. Continue …

March 27, 2022,Neunlindenpfad -Kaiserstuhl

Motivated by Markus, finally hiked the Neunlindenpfad completely from Ihringen to Endingen. Around noon - with increasing heat it got pretty exhausting. And then it was full of people at the Eichelspitzturm and the Katharinenkapelle. So hike again on Saturdays. Despite the heat in March, relatively few flowers bloomed. Probably because it's fart dry. But hiking the whole route was …

March 8, 2022,Endingen am Kaiserstuhl - Erleloch - Katharinenberg (492 m) - Eichelspitze (521 m) - Neunlindenturm - Totenkopf (557 m) - Lenzenberg - Ihringen

friends of cultivated hiking,

this hike has once again erased a white spot on my imaginary hiking map. Except for when our class went on a trip to the Kaiserstuhl to visit the Katharinenkapelle, we never hiked to the Kaiserstuhl again. But that should change as soon as possible.
Started at Endingen am Kaiserstuhl train station. First visit the city …

March 22, 2022,Fast drei Gipfel-drei Türme-Fast der Neunlindenpfad

That was a test for a round I'm planning in the fall - one of the many themed trails in the Kaiserstuhl. The three highest elevations in the Kaiserstuhl: Neunlindenbuck with the tower (the Totenkopf is a bit higher but not freely accessible), Eichelspitze and Katharinenberg. Wonderful how nature comes to life, everything that is already blooming. After you leave …
