Heisterbach Abbey Choir Ruins

Highlight • Historical Site

Next to the monastery ruins you can also stop off and recharge your batteries after the hike.

Rheinradweg Section at Seven Hills

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The new (unfortunately short) section of the Rhine cycle path is very well done. It is a comfortable width and is well lit. I also think the markings at the playground and the crossings are good.

Because of an unexplained 'heart', initially flat to Bad Honnef. Then Schmelztal up to Aegidienberg. Back via Thomasberg, Vinxel; PützchensChaussee down to Beuel. Over the old railway line to the Rhine. Back to the starting point, at the 'Haribo-Schiff', via the new bike expressway.

Thunderstorms were announced for this afternoon, but passed us by. The last clouds in the background. Up in the Siebengebirge there was a violent bang 1-2 hours earlier with hail and heavy rain.
