TOUR DESCRIPTION
Starting at the Kirchplatz (Church Square) in Kappelwindeck, you will walk through a developed area at first, followed by orchards. Go past the Einsiedelhof guest house on your way to the Gucken district. Carry on uphill to the Schüttebrünnele Fountain, where you can cool off and have a rest. A little bit later on, you could also stop off for a bite to eat at Restaurant Rebstock. Head through vineyards and along the edge of the forest to get to Restaurant Jägersteig. The route heads further uphill and then evens out through the forest to the Burgruine Alt-Windeck (Alt-Windeck Castle Ruins), where there is one restaurant of the same name and another one called Vesperstube Pferdestall. Here you can admire the lovely view across the Rhine Valley and climb to the top of the Burgturm (Castle Tower). Children can also have some fun on the playground. Then it’ll be time to head on back through Kappelwindeck to the Kirchplatz (Church Square), where you’ll find the Gasthof zur Traube hotel. We would recommend that you pay a visit to Barockkirche St. Maria (St. Mary’s Baroque Church) here too.
