    The highlight was named strangely. First, the Rhine is written with an H. And secondly, this is the viewing platform at the Isteiner thresholds ;-) The Isteiner thresholds are rapids in the Rhine near Istein and the last remnants of a Jura massif that originally blocked the Rhine from heading north (source: Wikipedia)

      Not far from Istein are the Isteiner Schwellen. These rapids between huge rock remnants were once a real obstacle to shipping. However, there is now a diversion, the Rhine Lateral Canal, and so this part of the Old Rhine is a well-preserved, natural recreational area.

        Great for swimming in the summer
