Pratteln to Muttenz - Rebenweg
Updated: 6 days ago
There is something absolutely magical about the autumn. Wearing sweaters, indulging in the cooler temperatures and experiencing the gorgeous colors in nature, all make this our absolute favorite time of the year for hiking.
Having the opportunity to hike through the many vineyards that fill the Swiss landscape, is an experience not to be missed. If you are looking for the perfect local hike that screams autumn, this hike is for you. With vineyards at the start and the end of the walk, this route is a feast for the eyes. With paved paths throughout, a farm and scenic views, plan to enjoy this hike over a relaxing weekend or with visitors.
The colors and the fresh air make this hike perfect from September through November. Take your camera and get ready to experience vineyards like never before! If your timing is right, you might just witness the grapes being harvested!
