The parking lot is located directly on the edge of the Taubergießen nature reserve near Rust and is the ideal starting point for hikes or runs in the floodplain landscape. Parking is free and allows for up to two hours with a parking disc. The location is quiet, surrounded by nature, and several well-marked trails into the nature reserve start from here.

The Dornskopf is a striking spot in the Taubergießen nature reserve, known for its typical floodplain landscape. Here, waterways branch out, surrounded by dense woodland and wet meadows. The area is particularly pristine and conveys the character of the old Rhine floodplain as it existed before the Rhine was straightened. With a bit of luck, you might spot rare bird species or signs of beavers. It's a place that exudes tranquility and showcases the wild beauty of the Taubergießen.

The Taubergießen is one of the largest and most biodiverse nature reserves in Baden-Württemberg. Located between Rust and the Rhine, it encompasses approximately 1,700 hectares of pristine floodplain landscape. Characteristic features include its branching waterways, wet meadows, forests, and oxbow lakes, which support a unique flora and fauna. Here you can find rare plant species, dragonflies, amphibians, and an impressive array of birdlife – including kingfishers, herons, and even storks. The landscape is characterized by tranquility and unspoiled nature, making it ideal for hiking, cycling, or observing wildlife. Particularly fascinating: the area is a remnant of the ancient Rhine floodplain as it existed before the Rhine was straightened.

The path leads through a quiet, unspoiled section of forest, typical of the floodplain landscape. Tall trees line the trail on both sides, interspersed with small streams and damp patches that define the character of the area. The ground is muddy in places, especially after rain, but that's precisely what makes the path so authentic. Here you feel close to nature – birdsong, the rustling of leaves, and the scent of damp wood accompany every step.

A picturesque crossing in the heart of the nature reserve. The simple wooden bridge spans one of the typical waterways of the Taubergießen and offers a beautiful view of the floodplain landscape. Here you can often hear the gentle lapping of the water and, with a bit of luck, observe herons or other water birds.

By the water in the Taubergießen nature reserve – a bench used to stand here, but today the spot still invites you to linger. With a view of the tranquil river landscape, it's a perfect place to pause for a moment and enjoy nature – without any seating, but with plenty of atmosphere.
