View of the Rhine from the Wingertsberg viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

Coming from Holzfeld, the "Am Wingertsberg" lookout point is the first lookout point over the Middle Rhine Valley.

Relatively unplanned, on the way back from Düsseldorf, without a backpack and drinks, but hiking boots and a ski jacket in the trunk. Hiked part of the Rheingold Traumschleife for a short time
Thanks Angelika for the tip.
Very nice and varied tour, unfortunately too late for the whole route, therefore shortened. …
