The vineyard path leads from Wilen via Breiten to Freienbach (Leutschenhaus) and along the vineyards back to Wilen. It is an attractive themed educational path amid the vineyards, which is also easy to manage for inexperienced hikers. If you need a refreshment break, the Leutschenhaus restaurant with its historic wine press is directly on the path. And if you have extra energy after the educational path, you can visit, for example, Europe's largest water park, the Alpamare, in Pfäffikon. Not only children enjoy this, but certainly very much so. Little ones also appreciate Knie's children's zoo in Rapperswil. Those who prefer a more leisurely and nature-oriented experience can visit the Frauenwinkel nature reserve, also in Pfäffikon." language: "en" type: "SportsActivityLocation" image: "https://dam.destination.one/2858596/11ad61c86271e53347345566cd1ff6ee0235944e9381ccb2817faa18275e56d7/.jpg" breadcrumb: "Root > Welcome to Lucerne > Special > Destination.Data Details > Tour" --- GPX Share Vineyard educational path ========================= - Tip - 4.27 km long - Round trip - Difficulty: easy - Condition: very easy - Great panorama - Theme trail The canton of Schwyz cultivates and cares for a fine drop of wine.
