Dossenwald Bird Protection Trail

Highlight • Trail

The Dossenwald forest is located in the south-east of Mannheim, in the vicinity of the districts of Rheinau and Seckenheim. Thanks to various Komootlers, we were able to combine the visit to this bird nature trail with other highlights.

Sand Dunes in Hirschacker und Dossenwald

Highlight • Natural Monument

Unusual, because sand dunes are not necessarily to be expected a bit away from the Rhine. There is a sign a little way away that explains that there were even shifting dunes here, which were fortified by plantings in the Middle Ages.
