Hiking & refreshments

from Bad Dürkheim

A circular hiking trail to the Michaeliskappe, through the vines, over the Spielberg and on to the “Weilberg” Roman villa. A varied tour with lots to see!

Micheals Chapel & Roman winery "Weilberg"

The best place to park in Bad Dürkheim is in the Wurstmarkt parking lot (this is also where the famous Dürkheim giant barrel is located).

You start the hike from the Wurstmarkt and walk to the Wurstmarkt traffic circle. Turn left after the Agip petrol station at the Lang winery and follow the steps to St. Michael’s Chapel.
Barrier-reduced alternative: Turn into Sachsenhütter Straße in front of the Agip petrol station. At the end of the road, turn right up into the vineyards to the small crossroads surrounded by dry stone walls. (To the right you can make a detour up to the chapel on Michelsberg, where the stairway also ends).

From the chapel you come to a crossroads surrounded by dry stone walls, here you walk straight ahead slightly uphill. The logo leads us past the Römerkelter, directly after the wine press we turn left up the Rebmuseum. At the end, turn right to the Weilberg Roman winery. After the tour, follow the logo through the noble wine village of Ungstein. Keep to the right past the Wolf winery into Spielbergweg. Follow this wonderful path along the ridge of the Spielberg until it rejoins the wine route. Continuing straight ahead, the path turns right into the vineyards.

At the Pfeffingen winery, turn right and follow the path slightly uphill to the crossroads. Straight ahead it leads to the first houses. Here you turn immediately left into Sachsenhütter Straße. At the end of the road, cross Weinstraße Nord and return to the start, Wurstmarktplatz.
