Hiking with three route lengths
The permanent Markgräfler vineyard hiking trail in Buggingen starts at Buggingen Primary School. Routes of 6, 11, and 16 km are available. The difference between the shortest and longest route is 10 km, making your preferred distance a practical factor in planning your hiking day. Check local information about the route before setting out.
Museums with a range of themes
The Kalimuseum with its visitor mine is located at Alemannenring 4; visits are possible by appointment. The soapbox car museum is at Im Mittelfeld 24 and is open by telephone appointment. S'Carli-Matthiese features a permanent exhibition of historic agricultural equipment; visits are also possible by appointment. The visitor mine, soapbox car museum, and historic agriculture each offer a different thematic focus. Plan each visit in accordance with the appointment arrangements.
Betberg Church and its history
Betberg Church is located in Buggingen-Betberg and is—after Sulzburg—one of the oldest churches in the area. It was probably one of the original churches in the Markgräflerland; it served as a place of worship for several surrounding villages. Its historical role thus extends beyond Betberg. Those interested in regional history will find a different perspective here than in the museums, each of which focuses on a specific subject.
