Give yourself another look at Alsace through a unique culture: hops. It is in the heart of the Kochersberg that you can discover this aromatic plant which is an essential component in the making of beer. Its cultivation offers an unusual and attractive landscape.
So, don't miss this fun discovery outing along the 4.5 km trail through the hop fields of Wingersheim, commune of Wingersheim les 4 Bans and hop capital of Alsace.
The Discovery Trail is led by the members of the association "Au Coeur des Houblonnières d'Alsace".
