Rhine

Highlight • River

With a mountain bike, the Rhine is a wonderful companion on the tour here. I found it particularly pleasant to be able to ride right along the water again and again and enjoy the calm river landscape. Perfect for taking the pace down a notch, letting your gaze wander, and consciously enjoying the tour.

Swans on the Rhine

Highlight • River

A small detour from the city down to the Rhine is always worthwhile, because on the passenger ship you almost always meet up to 20 swans 🦢

Unteres Tor (Basler Gate), Waldshut-Tiengen

Highlight • Historical Site

Visiting the interior is only possible as part of a guided tour.

The path up through the tower first leads through a small museum of Waldshut's city history. Once you reach the upper room, you can enjoy the beautiful view over the shopping street.

During the Christmas season, Kaiserstrasse looks particularly beautiful from up here.

Modern Sculpture Fountain in the Pedestrian Zone

Highlight • Monument

By mountain bike, a short detour into the pedestrian zone to see the modern sculpture fountains is worthwhile. I consciously slowed down here and enjoyed the special mix of city, art, and water. A nice little stop to loosen up the tour briefly and soak up the atmosphere.

Common eider on the Rhine

Highlight • River

With a mountain bike, it's worth making a short stop on the Rhine: The eider duck on the water was a beautiful little nature moment along the way. I stopped briefly, enjoyed the calm atmosphere on the bank, and let my gaze wander over the Rhine – perfect for a short break and a photo.
