Currently, the Nature Park Vespertours are offered in two nature parks: Nature Park Swabian-Franconian Forest and Nature Park Black Forest Central/North. Both regions are characterized by their unique landscapes and rich culinary traditions. No matter which nature park you choose, you can look forward to unforgettable experiences and regional specialties.

How the Nature Park Picnic Tours Work: Culinary Hiking Made Easy
The Naturpark Vespertouren are designed so that you can fully enjoy the regional products. At the centre is the so-called 'Vesper', a snack with regional specialities that you can pick up directly from the participating businesses and enjoy on the go. The Vespers contain a wide variety of products, including meat, cheese, baked goods, fruit, vegetables, and drinks, ensuring there's something for every taste. The Naturpark Vespertour offers culinary experiences across 24 farms in the Nature Park Black Forest Middle/North. The prices for the Vespers range from 13 to 20 euros, depending on the selection and the business.
To complete your experience, the Naturpark Vespertouren also offer hiking and cycling tour suggestions. These are designed to take you to the most beautiful spots in the region, allowing you to experience the landscape actively. The hiking suggestions are often available for download via the Q-vadis Tour Portal, so you can conveniently load them onto your smartphone or tablet and navigate while on the go. This way, you can, for example, plan your route in advance and be inspired by the detailed descriptions and maps.
The combination of culinary delights and active movement makes the Naturpark Vespertouren an unforgettable experience for anyone who loves nature and appreciates regional products. The initiative integrates regional economic development with nature tourism by promoting local producers and their products.
