On August 18, 2010, the Internet portal opens its doors. The temporally and spatially closest wine walks can be found across regional and independent of the provider. The joy of hiking and the enjoyment of wine get along well. But what wine hike fits the “wine hiking”? When and where will it take place, what awaits the visitor, who is the Organizer, how is the weather? For over 50 wine hiking route, stations, organizer, maps and weather information on the Web page weinwanderung.net. At Boy Scouts of America you will find additional information. Step by step, SIP by SIP public wine tours which take place regularly are the focus of the Internet portal (typically annually, semi-annually in individual cases or in the two-year cycle), have more than a tasting station and have an average attendance of more than 150 wine hikers. In addition to information about each hike the contact among the participants is very important: what was especially nice, where can the most delicious wines can be ordered? The interaction of the portal visitors with each other is relieved by comments, recommendation via email or easy transfer in social networks.

By fan for fans Portal operator Ralf Hettinger is even self-professed wine Walker: “the joy of the combination hiking and wine discovered during my first wine hike has opened my eyes. Wine hiking connects generations and more. Rarely I have so casually with very different people from young to old in friendly contact, with which I had hardly opportunity in everyday life, to have a Word. For almost all fans or communities of interest there are focal points today on the Internet until now but not for wine hikers. This gap weinwanderung.net.” Hettinger is based also on the interest of the organizers: “we are of course grateful for reliable information, makes the relevant Organiser directly come to us. This information is currently mostly only regionally and at best as a display or The handout is available. Supports this with the online feature ‘log Weinwanderung.NET wine tour’. We know from the previous requests to us not only by individuals but also by broadcasters such as the SWR that there are numerous visitors who are looking for today in vain quick and clear information (not only) on the Internet and were so far not find.” The next wine walks are the Kocher Valley gourmet tour on August 21 and then on August 28 and 29 the wine hiking day in Ubstadt-Weiher.
