The third of the “Hiking in Ehrenhausen” wine trails is a loop trail that leads to Gamlitz, home to Europe’s largest motor skills park, and back again.
Starting from the center of Ehrenhausen, you first hike toward Gamlitz. Passing the Archduke Johann Wine Shop, turn left toward Ottenberg, where you’ll already see the first vineyards and be rewarded with a magnificent view. You’ll pass by wineries and wine taverns along the way. Passing the Dietrich fruit farm and Marko wine tavern, the trail then descends via the Ratscher Graben to Europe’s largest motor skills park in Gamlitz. Take a short break here, and if you haven’t burned off enough energy yet, take a lap around the park and explore the stations. You’ll then hike back to Ehrenhausen along the Weinleitenstraße. A short detour to the Gamlitz water tower, which is located slightly off the trail, offers you a magnificent view of the countryside.
