The Rhine promenade between Oestrich-Winkel and Geisenheim is a true highlight for cyclists and walkers in the Rheingau. With views of the Rhine, the vineyards, and small riverside forests, it offers a perfect blend of nature, culture, and exercise.

Around 1100: Founded as a Benedictine monastery. 1716: After destruction during the Thirty Years' War, the Prince-Bishop of Mainz purchased the ruins and had the baroque Johannisberg Palace built on the same site. Owners included the Prince-Abbots of Fulda and later the Prince of Metternich. Famous for the origin of the Spätlese (late harvest): In 1775, a delayed harvest was permitted for the first time → discovery of noble rot (Botrytis) → one of the most important moments in winemaking history! One of the oldest Riesling wineries in the world. Approximately 50 hectares of vineyards, exclusively Riesling. Specialty: high-quality Prädikat wines (Kabinett, Spätlese, Auslese, Beerenauslese, Trockenbeerenauslese, and Eiswein). Many vintages are among the top wines of the Rheingau.

The castle is a prime example of Rhine Romanticism – the era in which poets, painters, and noblemen discovered the Rhine as a place of longing. The view encompasses not only the castle itself, but also the UNESCO World Heritage Upper Middle Rhine Valley, with its steep vineyards and historic villages.

The view of Johannisberg Castle from the Märzackerweg is a true Rheingau highlight – perfect for connoisseurs, photographers, and cyclists with a sense of aesthetics.
