The Stockstadt-Erfelder Altrhein is a 16.4 kilometer long arm of the Old Rhine on the right bank of the Rhine in the Hessian Ried, which branches off from the main stream below Biebesheim and joins it again 5.2 kilometers further north above Oppenheim, after having previously followed a 5.9 kilometers North-east sweeping loop passed the eponymous locations Stockstadt am Rhein and Erfelden.

The Kühkopf - the European bird reserve on the Rhine
Today's Kühkopf was originally an inland peninsula near Guntersblum, with Rhine islands to the east, north and south.

In the course of the straightening of the Rhine (1828/1829), a straightening breakthrough was made to the west of the peninsula and the area was completely separated from the mainland on the left bank of the Rhine, making the peninsula a river island. The Rhine islands that used to be in front of the peninsula now have a connection to the rest of the section due to silting up. The former main course of the Rhine is now an old bend in the Rhine.

The almost undeveloped Kühkopf today forms the nature reserve "Kühkopf-Knoblochsaue" together with the Knoblochsaue to the north and some smaller islets in the Old Rhine. The Kühkopf alone accounts for around 1,700 hectares of the 2,440-hectare nature reserve. The island can be reached via two bridges.
