Vineyard and nature hiking trail (vineyard route)

A shorter and a longer route provide information about viticulture, the forest, and the natural landscape around the Remiger Bützberg. The mountain, with its flat plateau and steep slopes, belongs to the Tafeljura. The vineyards, fields, and forests are an attractive local recreational area – for people and animals alike. In about 43 hectares of forest, forestry implements several nature conservation projects. Diverse forest edges, old-growth wood islands, an oak forest reserve, and a pine forest perimeter offer valuable habitats for rare animal and plant species. Special tree species such as wild service tree, rowan, service tree, field maple, Norway maple, wild pear, and yew are being promoted.
