The vineyard covers approximately 1.3 hectares and primarily produces a Riesling known as 'Frankfurter Lohrberger Hang'.
It is historically significant as the last remaining city-owned vineyard in Frankfurt, a remnant of a once-extensive viticulture tradition in the region.
The park functions as a major stop along the 'Grüngürtel-Radweg', a 68-kilometer bicycle path encircling the city.
During the harvest season, the grapes are traditionally processed by the Hochheim winery located in the nearby Rheingau region.
The terrain is a volcanic remnant, which contributes to the specific microclimate and soil conditions necessary for the vineyard's survival this far north.
Lohrberg, often referred to as Lohrpark, sits on the 185-meter-high Lohrberg hill, serving as Frankfurt's northernmost vineyard. The site offers a panoramic vantage point overlooking the Frankfurt skyline, the Main river valley, and the surrounding Taunus mountains. It is the only vineyard within the Frankfurt city limits and is maintained by the city's parks department. The park grounds feature extensive meadows, a central barbecue area, and an orchard focused on preserving regional fruit varieties. A dedicated restaurant, the Lohrbergschänke, operates on the premises to serve seasonal food and local wine. The park serves as a central node in the Frankfurt Green Belt, a protected recreational ring encircling the city.

Bring a blanket for the meadows if you intend to picnic, as public seating can become scarce on sunny weekends.
Visit during the early autumn harvest season to see the vineyards at their peak activity.
Pack a light jacket, as the exposed hilltop position makes the area significantly windier than the city center below.
Do not attempt to walk through the vineyard rows, as the soil and vines are protected for agricultural cultivation.
Maintain noise levels during evenings and respect the restricted zones within the vineyard rows.
