Eltville's Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

If you want to get to know the Rheingau, you should visit Eltville rather than Rüdesheim.
We recommend treating yourself to a Riesling at the wine tasting stand (on the Promenade) and gazing at the Rhine, lost in thought.

Towpath on the Rhine

Highlight • Cycleway

The towpath is easy to cycle along, but it is too busy on weekends and public holidays. You should also find out beforehand whether there is currently high water. If so, it will flood quickly.

Rhine Cycle Path near Geisenheim

Highlight • Cycleway

The section of the Rhine Cycle Path near Geisenheim is one of the most beautiful routes in the Rheingau. It is very well-developed, offers magnificent views of the Rhine and the surrounding vineyards, and is particularly popular with recreational and touring cyclists.

Always beautiful again: cozy benches with a view of the Rhine. In summer, there is gastronomy next door and usually a stand with fresh fruit. And all year round, the restaurant behind the dike.

Nice tour. In the Rheingau always along the water on paved paths.
In Rheinhessen rather away from the river with partly gravel. Long drive through the industrial area of Mainz.

Today we took the last bike ride of our campervan holiday.
It started at our campsite "Am Rhein GmbH" in Rüdesheim, along both banks of the Rhine.
This bike ride is a Komoot recommendation for this region:

Tomorrow we'll head back home.

After the run on Saturday, the weather was a little better today, but the wind picked up again and blew heavily around our noses...so we decided to do a very calm tour starting in Wiesbaden. It started along the Rhine and through many small gardens in the direction of Bingen. When we arrived we went on the ferry to Rüdesheim, …

With the ferry from Rüdesheim to Bingen and on to Mainz.
The cathedral is of course the heart of the city.
On the way back to Rüdesheim on the other side of the Rhine. Beautiful route and mostly the Rhine in view.

Some signs warned of "flooding". Naturally, they were ignored and people ended up with wet feet.
