DWI Wine Hiking Weekend in the Heilbronn Region

Wine enjoyment and hiking passion come together during the nationwide Wine Hiking Weekend organized by the German Wine Institute (DWI) for truly special gourmet hikes | usually on the last weekend in April. Wine enjoyment & hiking passion find a unique charm this weekend. Under the motto "Hiking where the wine grows," numerous guided gourmet hikes take place during this weekend, including steep slope tours or historical costume tours. All tours come with tips for additional wine experiences before or after the hike, as well as dining options and recommendations for wine-related accommodations. Prime spots in the sea of vines - Wine huts The managed wine huts in the wine region of southern Germany have already opened for the season at the beginning of April. Nestled among the vines, often in beautiful locations, regional wines can be tasted along with small snacks. With the Wine Hiking information package from HeilbronnerLand, you can plan a delightful short trip to the wine homeland of Württemberg: the most beautiful wine hiking trails, wine huts as scenic rest and picnic stops, or a visit to a typical local wine tavern. Open Winery Day 2026 allows for a perfect combination of the Wine Hiking Weekend in Württemberg with the Open Winery Day in Heilbronn. On April 25 & 26, five wineries in Heilbronn will open their courtyards for a behind-the-scenes look, featuring themed tastings, cellar tours, and some vineyard tours.
