KulTour & Wine

Hauptplatz, 3953 Leuk Stadt
From CHF 350.00
Discover Leuk with its stories, wine specialties and culinary delights. Roam the Pfyn-Finges Nature Park together.
Two days for connoisseurs and discoverers. Saturday belongs to the Leuker KulTour. Participants taste and enjoy at various points. And finally, the Cornalin Vitis Antiqua 1789 will be tasted. The oldest Cornalin vine in Switzerland grows here in the heart of Leuk-Stadt. The vine was planted in 1798. From the old vine, the winegrowers united in the "Vitis Antiqua" association had offshoots grafted, which they planted in a mother garden in a prime location in Leuk. Today, the Cornalin "Vitis Antiqua 1798" is one of the award-winning Swiss wines. A bottle comes home with you, because it is part of the package.

On Sunday, the impressive forest fire area of Leuk awaits. In the summer of 2003, the forest above Leuk burned to the ground - an event of the century. The trail leads directly through the firebreak, which is still clearly visible today, and shows with what incredible regenerative power both the flora and fauna have developed since then.

On the remaining part of the hike, which by the way lies entirely within the Pfyn-Finges Nature Park, one also encounters a stand of fir trees that has a special significance for the WSL, fields of rye with a flora that accompanies the fields as it did in grandmother's day, rare bird species and one of the oldest vines in Switzerland. Repeatedly, the view opens down the valley to the large renaturation area of the Rotten.

Saturday: Stroll through the alleys of the medieval town of Leuk-Stadt, visit historical sites, enjoy wine specialties and local culinary appetizers.

Sunday: hike where others do research - excursion through the forest fire area of Leuk in the Pfyn-Finges Nature Park.

Meeting point: 04.05.24, 14.45, Leuk town.
