Premiumwanderweg "Bermatinger Waldwiesen"

Forests, meadows and vineyards in full expanse

The shortest and easiest tour of the Bodensee LandGänge begins in the middle of the idyllic wine village of Bermatingen, which is characterized by numerous half-timbered houses. It leads hiking enthusiasts along beautiful paths and trails to a place with an almost magical aura...

Every LandGang has its own magic...

...and this insight, loosely based on Hermann Hesse, is particularly true of the station that gives the Bermatinger Waldwiesen premium hiking trail its name. After an ascent through the village, you reach the first vantage points towards the Alps and Salem Valley via orchards and forest paths. Comfortable benches and wooden loungers are available here for particularly comfortable breaks. Soon after, the hiker reaches the Bermatinger Waldwiesen meadows - and is immediately enchanted by the unique atmosphere of this rare type of clearing: naturally grown meadows, lined by dense forest and crossed by a narrow stream invite you to enjoy a picnic, preferably at the newly established rest area.


Relaxing adventure hike with the Alps in view

Further on, you approach Wiggenweiler and the farm of the same name, surrounded by paddocks, via fields and country lanes. Just a few hundred meters further on, the tour leads past the former Weppach monastery and soon onto a narrow forest path down to the Weppachbach stream. This is crossed on stepping stones lying directly in the water - an exciting and fun experience, especially for children!

Now it's not far to the final highlight of the circular route, which once again offers magnificent views of the northern peaks of the Alps on a clear day: Vineyards lead gently down to the edge of Bermatingen, where the tour ends in the historic town center - and often in one of the local inns.
