Retired farmer Kurt Kaltenrieder devotes himself to this task. In fine weather, he takes a weekly cycle ride along both vegetable paths to check that all is in order. He knows every variety of vegetable that is planted, and he will explain to anyone interested how a tiny seed turns into an edible vegetable.
Tourists take about half a day to complete the green route, covering 25km. The actual educational trail with information boards about more than 40 types of vegetable is on the red route, which is 45km long. There are rail stations along the route, so you can choose the distance you want to cover.
