August 21, 2022,Drehbrücke Insel Rott – Radweg am Rhein - ab Hochstetten S-Bahn

Parked in the residential area near the S-Bahn station. Beautiful route, mostly away from motor roads.

Tip 1: On the way back from the Rhine (near the ferry) there is a bit of country road. Rather uncomfortable; It is best to look again at the planning stage and find a car-free route. Should be possible.
