Kühkopf is always worth a tour

Nature reserve, peace, fresh air.

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.

The car ferry Helene connects Gernsheim and Eich. The ferry itself is relatively large, comfortable and well frequented. The crossing is cheap. Nobody should get seasick with the short journey time of 5 to 10 minutes.

The European reserve Kühkopf-Knoblochsaue in the Groß-Gerau district is the largest nature reserve in Hesse. It is part of the Hessian Ried between the Rhine and Bergstrasse. It is also designated as the largest contiguous flood area along the Hessian banks of the Rhine and is thus used for flood protection.

The Altrhein is particularly beautiful here at the Kühkopf. Simply enjoy the meadow landscape.

The ferry is located at Rhine kilometer 461.7 and was set up in the immediate vicinity of the Rhine bridge Gernsheim (Rhine kilometer 461.5), which was destroyed in March 1945, because the bridge was not rebuilt after the war. The ferry service could also be maintained at the lowest level of the Worms level of 2 cm [1], at which level the service is not yet known. On December 21, 2015 the new Rhine ferry of the Gernsheimer Rhine ferry company of the Fretter family was inaugurated under the name "Helene". With this, the "City of Gernsheim" was replaced after 50 years, the ship was handed over to the Nierstein Rhine ferry. [2] The new ship with a length of 62.80 m [3] has 50% more loading capacity and can now accommodate around 28 vehicles. [
