Yes, you can go in a Naturpark. It's just an area where nature is preserved more than otherplace, e.g. you can't build everywhere you want. There are no elk here.
There is an easy public transport connection from Walldorf to Grasellenbach: S-Train from Walldorf-Wiesloch station to Heidelberg main station, regular train to Weinheim and then almost one hour by bus to Grasellenbach. It's cheap, too, because it belongs to the VRN, the local public transport network: 8.30 Euros for a single trip, 14 Euros for a one-person 24-hour-ticket, 20 Euros for a 5-person 24-hour-ticket. Take a look at www.vrn.de . It's only in German, except for the timetables, which can be accessed via the little Union Jack on the left side. An overview over the service's area is behind the link "Fahrscheine/Tarif" on the main page. High definition maps are under "Linienpläne" -> "Netz-Linienpläne" -> "VRN Gesamt-Liniennetzplan", then chose a part of the map.
I'll go there, too, on the way to my parents. I guess you can't yet tell when you will be there, can you? - Danatar 18:47, 15 October 2010 (UTC)
I'm currently in Heidelberg, until Sunday evening, would join you if we'd share a VRN group ticket. Koepfel talk 00:53, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
