Highlights from Bad Dürkheim

10 - 14 Sep and 17 - 20 Sep 2010 - free slots in your calendar? Then you might consider a visit to Bad Dürkheim. One of the biggest and the oldest wine festivals is awaiting you and trust me the place is brimming with activity. If you plan to take your kids then I would advise you to start early so that you avoid the crowds pouring in towards late afternoon. This festival has been celebrated for more than 570 years now!! And friends tell me that every year it only seems that there are even more attractions.


Be careful if you want to sample the wines, make sure that you order the smallest sizes and that is already quite a lot!! But you will need them if you intend to sit through all the fun rides with your kids like I did ;-)
