Rheingrafenstein

One of the most beautiful fortresses far and wide, esp. The "natural", worked from the rock keep, which falls steeply to the near, is impressive

A ruined castle, according to legend, built by the devil.
Magnificent view of the Nahe valley

Great view of the Rotenfels.

One of the most beautiful castles far and wide

Mega panoramic view down into the Huttental, Bad Münster, the Rotenfels, the Kreuznacher forest ... An excursion is definitely worth it!
Enjoy the nature!

For the beautiful view over the Nahe valley, every vertical meter to be mastered is worthwhile.

... also possible as a round trip, see exchange of experiences / dialogue.

The ascent is worth it, great view, unfortunately the castle ruins are no longer in the best condition

There are beautiful castles and landscapes not only on the Rhine.
Along the Nahe from Bad Münster am Stein via Bad Kreuznach to Bingen you can marvel at the castles and ruins as well as wonderful landscapes.

The Rheingrafenstein ruins are located above the Nahe and Huttental valleys. Highly recommended and with a fantastic view of the Nahe valley.

The climb demands fitness, compensated for it with a terrific view. Unfortunately, the ruin is in a bad condition (as of May 2019). Stairs are destroyed and doors are poorly secured.

The view is worthwhile.

Great hiking area, even with dogs.

The region there has a dense network of very beautiful hiking trails. It runs nicely there during the week. The Rheingrafenstein ruins have flair.

Basically you should wear sturdy shoes.
The path is not suitable for strollers or people with handicaps.
The view from the viewing platform, however, makes up for any effort of the ascent.
Certainly also a highlight to enjoy sunsets - if necessary pack a delicious drop of Nahe wine in your backpack;)

Great view of the Nahe valley

Here it is great biking. Great views of Bad Münster am Stein.

One of the most beautiful castle complexes far and wide, great views of the Nahe valley and Bad Münster am Stein

Must see, unique in the region

If you come from the goose, you can still visit the castle ruins. The climb is a bit exhausting, but there are plenty of opportunities to rest. The view from the castle offers a view of Bad Münster and the Nahe river.

great view over the Ebernburg, panorama and valley.

Even before the castle is (once) on the castle. In any case, you have to go all the way up - even if the way there is narrow and arduous. The view is terrific. And if you are on your way towards Huttental after visiting the Rheingrafenstein, you should look back again: just before the Huttental you can see the remains of the old outer bailey, the Affenstein, which seem to stick to an even steeper, smaller rock.

Very beautiful, winding castle ruins with many fantastic viewpoints. No parking space in the immediate vicinity (luckily 😉)

Look at the goose
