Rhine Promenade, Kaiserswerth

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Great bike path, but slalom riding is often necessary with the many visitors. Still recommendable because of the view of the Rhine!

September 27, 2024,Vom Winde verweht

On the one hand, the two photos provided are misleading: they do not reflect the incredibly strong wind with up to 65 KMH. On the other hand, the small number of photos shows the concentration on not being swept off the saddle.
Actually, a much longer "Rhine Bridge Tour" was planned with friend Peter: at every bridge - starting with …

November 29, 2021,Rheinrunde: Bei gemischtem Wetter ist der Himmel am schönsten.

I've done this round a thousand times, but today, on a rather mixed November day, the atmosphere was particularly good. In such weather you have the Rhine dike almost to yourself.

The Rhine tour on your doorstep is always a little different. Today the sun surprisingly appeared and created an idyllic evening atmosphere. Horses, sheep, herons, everyone seemed to enjoy it.

December 6, 2021,Der Rhein mal ganz benebelt

The favorite route completely obscured. Also had something. Heard but not seen aircraft on approach. Of course, Santa Claus didn't fly either, but he was very present in the cafe in Kaiserswerth. The sheep, on the other hand, obviously didn't care about the mist soup. The grass could still be seen.

The mixture of evening sun and rain clouds was particularly beautiful today. It finally rained heavily on the ferry trip to Kaiserswerth. So I took refuge in the "Alte Rhein Fähre". Fortunately, the restaurant is open every day, including Mondays. Because there was already a nice wild card, ordered a deer goulash. Then came home relatively dry. Sheep, giant airplanes, …

June 6, 2022,Rhein rauf und runter, gerade noch rechtzeitig

On Whit Monday at 10 a.m. there was just room on the dyke to Kaiserswerth. On the way back on the other side, around eleven o'clock, the e-bikes, racing cyclists, dog walkers and cargo bikes were already streaming towards me. The path around the boat harbor in Lörick along the banks of the Rhine is a little quieter. Weather was …
