Saalbachkanal Weir

Highlight • Structure

Always on the flood dam along the Saalbach Canal, this is how you get to the Old Rhine area at some point. Beautiful meadow path, easy to walk with a clear view of the entire area.

the bunker is fenced in and can only be "visited" from the outside, which is definitely safer given the dilapidated state and the state of decay

Rußheimer Altrhein

Highlight • River

Through the forest it is on a very bad surface. The small bridges and views of the Old Rhine make up for everything.

Highlight • Rest Area

definitely use it - apart from this seat, there was only the Altrheinhütte on our 15 km tour, which offered us a comfortable place to rest with benches
