The Gewürztraminer vineyards above Termeno are the destination of this easy hike: On a length of 3.5 km, it informs you about the soils, the microclimate, and the work necessary for the Gewürztraminer to thrive here. The white wine that made the village of Termeno famous worldwide, has been cultivated in the area since the 11th century. The vine, also called Red Traminer or Yellow Traminer, is demanding: The soil must be easily warmable and not too dry. The resulting wine has wonderfully intense aromas of rose, lychee, bitter orange, and marzipan.

The Gewürztraminer Trail starts in the historic village centre, called Bethlehem, and leads past an oversized Gewürztraminer sign made of Corten steel towards the vineyards. Afterwards, the trail leads south through the forest to the hamlet of Ronchi and back again, with beautiful views on the Wine Road with its old residences and churches. This hike is recommended in spring at the apple blossom, or in autumn when the grapes are ripe. Also the GewürzTRAMINer Wineday in spring is completely dedicated to the Gewürztraminer. Walking time: approx. 1 hour.
