The UNESCO World Heritage Upper Middle Rhine Valley is part of the RheinTaunus Nature Park. This romantic, vibrant, and densely forested region is one of Germany's most beautiful low mountain ranges.The UNESCO World Heritage Upper Middle Rhine Valley stretches from Rüdesheim and Bingen in the south to Koblenz in the north. At 67 kilometers, it only accounts for about five percent of the entire course of the river, but is often described as the most beautiful stretch of the entire Rhine between the Alps and the North Sea.Here you will find an incomparable wealth of cultural assets and more than two thousand years of history concentrated in this stretch of the river. The Rhine's special importance as a transport route, a source of income, and a repeatedly contested border; its landscape as a witness to Germany's exciting history; and its tradition of winemaking and shipping – all this demonstrates the multifaceted nature of this unique region.
