Alt-Dettenheim Memorial Stone

Highlight • Monument

The memorial stone is reminiscent of Old Dettenheim. The place is not far from the Rhine and the floods repeatedly flooded the place. In 1813 the town was relocated to Altenbürg and renamed Karlsdorf. Here are still a few houses and the inn "Zum Löwen", but this is closed for 10 years. In the village used to be a brickyard.

On the way to see friends in Oppenheim, I made a short detour to the island of Rott.
I saw Jürgen's tour. Thank you for sharing. It's a nice flat hike.
Past the Baggersee, Old Rhine and Rhine with two bars and a beautiful terrace or beer garden. There are also many benches on the way.
There was only one …

A walk around the lake followed by lunch 😋

A nice round trip around the quarry lake with views from the dam and insights through the reeds. The paths are mostly gravel or paved, the dirt roads are a bit soft but can be walked well with sturdy shoes. The sunset at the end of the tour was great.

Or in search of spring. Although everything still looks quite brown, you can see and hear spring everywhere: the hammering of a woodpecker, a swan searching for food, birdsong. At the end of our walk, we admired the sunset over the lake and how the sun reflected in the water.
