Beautiful to look at from below.
You should still take the time to visit the fortress.
It's unimaginably big when you're up there.
Among other things, you'll find a youth …

The Rhine Cycle Path could be improved with surface and routing. The route from Vallendar to Engers is really no fun. Please do not imitate the descent from the Marksburg. It ended on the Rheinsteig.

Today I finally opened the 2022 bike season. It went to the Rhine again: from Neuwied over the Raiffeisen Bridge and via Weißenthurm on the left bank of the Rhine to Koblenz, over the Moselle and to the Deutsches Eck, on to Boppard and back to Koblenz. Over the Pfaffendorfer Bridge and on the right bank of the Rhine via …

Why is it so beautiful on the Rhine.....
Yes, it is beautiful and rightly a world heritage site.
I can only recommend it!

A varied route along the Rhine.
The last 10 km led directly along the road 🥴
Definitely to be continued 😊

In the best weather, we're going along the Rhine towards Bopparder Hamn today 😁

The paths are quite easy to drive, even if they are sometimes unspectacular 😏

But then it's uphill, straight into the vineyards to what is probably the most brilliant view you can imagine 😎

Actually, the ferry should be taken over and driven back on the other side, but all three participants didn't feel like it. All in all a pleasant tour with great weather. Just don't be surprised about the course of the route: the tour ended with a detour in Urmitz back home I have to get a new battery for my …
