With the Bike Through the Cultural Landscape of Traditional Orchards
This guided cycling tour uniquely connects nature experience, local history, and lived biodiversity in an impressive way. Led by Rudolf Siehler, the tour takes place as part of the week of biodiversity from the district demonstration garden in Weißenhorn into a landscape where old fruit varieties, traditional orchards, and valuable biotopes characterize the view.
A Starting Point with Character
The district demonstration garden in Weißenhorn is much more than just a meeting point. The gardening educational institution of the district of Neu-Ulm has been conveying knowledge about fruits, vegetables, herbs, and nature-oriented gardening for decades. Starting here, visitors immediately immerse themselves in an atmosphere that combines expertise and a desire to explore.
Traditional Orchards, Biodiversity, and Regional Identity
The route follows the concept of the traditional orchard tour and makes the importance of this landscape for the cultural heritage of the region tangible. Along the way, wide views open up onto orchard meadows, courtyard trees, and traditional orchards, which provide habitats for numerous animal and plant species. The mix of movement, nature observation, and cultural historical background is particularly appealing.
On the Way to Shaping Places in the Region
The tour leads to prominent stations of the traditional orchard landscape in the northern district of Neu-Ulm. These include the fruit variety preservation garden in Weißenhorn, further traditional orchard areas towards Roggenburg and Biberach, the traditional orchard avenue NU 10, as well as the path via Attenhofen and Pfaffenhofen a. d. Roth. Thus, a cycling loop becomes a lively discovery experience with strong visuals and clear added value for nature-interested guests.
