Nature

The Wißberg is 270 metres high and one of the highest elevations in Rheinhessen. A hiking trail to the Wißberg begins in Sprendlingen. On the western side of the Wißberg, a geological trail provides insights into sites containing fossilised mussels and ceramic shards from the Hallstatt period.

The panoramic trail on the Wißberg runs around the golf course and offers views across the region. The high-altitude hiking trail passes through agricultural fields, vineyards and woodland and includes scenic viewpoints and rest areas such as the Zotzenheimer Horn.
