Kühkopf is always worth a tour

If you've enjoyed the race track, it's worth cycling a bit up the dyke path.

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 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.

A very popular cycle motorway on weekends in summer. From now on in November you often drive for kilometers here without meeting a cyclist. Nature is unspectacular, but not without charm. From time to time it is worth driving a section up on the dam, because then you can look over the dike into the much more interesting nature towards the Rhine.

You feel like you are on the coast, at least here the wind can blow quite well😎
