About Wein-Wanderweg-Fest

The Wein-Wanderweg-Fest Mittlere Nahe is one of the most ambitious wine-hiking formats on the Nahe river, held over four days in early September along the Mittlere Nahe wine trail. The route is approximately 13 km long and runs between Martinstein and Bad Sobernheim through the central Nahe vineyards. Along the route, vintners and associations operate wine stands offering tastings and regional specialities. It is open from 11 am to 6 pm, and a bus shuttle runs from 10:30 am to 7:30 pm, allowing hikers to start or finish at any stage. Those who wish to experience the Mittlere Nahe in its full breadth, from the steep slopes near Martinstein to the Sobernheim vineyards, will find the Wein-Wanderweg-Fest the ideal format.

The Mittlere Nahe Wine Trail

The Mittlere Nahe wine trail is one of the most scenically attractive hiking routes in the Nahe wine region. It runs between Martinstein and Bad Sobernheim over a distance of approximately 13 km through the central Nahe vineyards, with wide views of the Nahe valley and the surrounding low mountain landscape. The vineyards along the path produce Riesling, Pinot Noir, and the specialities of the Mittlere Nahe.

Four Festival Days Along the Route

The festival format is designed for four days, allowing you to hike the entire route in several stages or use one day for a shorter tour. The route is active between 11 am and 6 pm each festival day: vintners and associations operate wine stands offering tastings and refreshments.

Vintners and Regional Specialities

Several vintners from the communities between Martinstein and Bad Sobernheim present their wines along the route. The diversity of locations and styles provides a comprehensive impression of the Mittlere Nahe. Regional specialities at the refreshment stops ensure you stay energised during your hike.

Bus Shuttle for Flexible Hiking

A bus shuttle runs from 10:30 am to 7:30 pm between the endpoints, allowing hikers to design their tour flexibly. If you want to walk a shorter distance, you can skip part of the route using the shuttle. If you don't want to walk back after your hike, use the shuttle for the return journey. The contribution is approximately €2.50 per person.
