Beautiful castle complex 👍

This castle ruin is located directly above Dalberg. Covered rest areas are available right next to the castle.

Schambes Klappergässer is a fictional character created by Karl Eugen Schmidt. The local newspaper, the Oeffentliche Anzeiger, not only named a dialect competition after Schambes Klappergässer, but also dedicated a monument to him in 1986—a sculpture weighing approximately one ton—which it presented to the citizens of Kreuznach. "Life and Deeds of the Excellent and Strict Mr. Schambes Klappergässer from Kreuznach After His Death" is the title of the novel written by Karl Eugen Schmidt (1866–1953). Schmidt was not only a regional author. This world traveler also lived for a time in the French capital, where he wrote a book about "Parisian Characters" and books on art, including works on 19th-century French painting.

Beautiful small and open chapel

In the village of Dalburg at the Chapel of St. Leonard there is another meditation panel on the Hildegardweg (panel 46: “The triple wall”).

​👑 Rheingrafenstein Castle Ruins – The Rock Boss on the Cycle Path ​Tip: Stop here! The Rheingrafenstein ruins sit dramatically perched on a 136-meter-high porphyry cliff above the Nahe River – one of the most impressive sights of the entire tour. The castle was the ancestral seat of the famous Wildgraves and Rhinegraves (until it was blown up in 1689). ​The view from the cycle path is phenomenal! If you really want to go up (and have enough energy), you can take the small hand-pulled ferry across and take the steep hiking trail to the ruins. It's worth it for the view over the Nahe Valley, but honestly: My legs were already tired enough from cycling. The panoramic view from below is worth its weight in gold! A must-have for your photo collection!

Rheingrafenstein Castle sits enthroned on a steep porphyry cliff (245 meters high) directly above the Nahe River near Bad Münster am Stein-Ebernburg. Legend has it that the devil himself built the castle—a reference to its dramatic location and mystical aura. In fact, it likely dates back to the 11th century and was the ancestral seat of the Lords of Stein, later the Wildgraves and Rhinegraves. In 1689, it was blown up by French troops under Louis XIV, and since then it has been a ruin—but an extremely impressive one.
