March 19, 2022,Mainz-Kastel: Die Einkreisung des Rheins 🐴 ⚔️ 🦁

Mainz-Kastel was my goal today. As locals told me, the registered cars have WI as license plates because the Americans defined the Rhine as the border after WW2 and Mainz-Kastel from then on belonged to the Wiesbaden district.
It started on an avenue of plane trees along the Rhine, first with a view of Mainz, then of the Petersaue. From …

June 2, 2024,3-Brücken-Wanderung Mainz 2.0 - verschollen im Zollhafen

Today we're repeating the 3-bridge hike along the Rhine. Start/finish at the Reduite in Mainz Kastell. Downstream we go to the Kaiser Wilhelm railway bridge. The Rhine is pretty high, some depressions are already flooded. On the left bank of the Rhine we go back through the construction area at the Zollhafen. We initially ignored the no entry signs. But …

‼️HM are not correct. Everything is flat there.
Afternoon hike for those without hiking.
5 men, 5 dogs and 10 women 😃
It was exhausting for the dogs and especially for Curt. Unfortunately, the many noises stress Curt out. He feels most comfortable in the fields and forests.
On the Mainz side, a lot has happened in the former harbor …

Short, easy 3-bridge tour in Mainz on wide paths - on the Mainz side almost exclusively asphalt or cobblestones, on the Kastel side solid ground and asphalt.

The currently somewhat uncomfortable part, namely the path through the large construction site(s) that will still exist in the coming years, …
