    Hiking

    The British painter William Turner is considered one of the fathers of romanticism in the Rhine. He was fascinated by the unique landscape, the castles and the Rhine slopes characterized by the viticulture. Turner sketched his impressions during his trip to the Rhine in 1817, which resulted in numerous watercolors.
    In a project of the Upper Middle Rhine Valley World Heritage Association, 200 years later, the artist's painting locations can now be experienced. Accessible information boards have been or will be installed at 26 locations between Koblenz and Bingen.
