Highlight • Cycleway

Not necessarily worth a detour, but if you have to go this way, there's nothing better. A really good bike "road."

Viernheim Dunes

Highlight • Natural Monument

Dunes in Viernheim.
The dune landscape in Viernheim invites you to linger and enjoy the peace and quiet. You can't get very far on the bike on the sandy ground. But there are also paved paths and small forest trails.
