Franzosenkopf

Highlight • Summit

The "summit" itself is not very spectacular and is marked by a stone stele (trigonometry point), where a single rest bench is available.

Several deforested parcels provide a little view of the Middle Rhine Valley.
But the large windthrow area east of the summit is more interesting.

Belle Cross

Highlight • Monument

The Belle Kreuz is a central point and is right at the intersection. From here there are many interesting trails. You almost always pass here on a tour through the Binger Forest.

Krummefichte Singletrail

Highlight • MTB Park

Very nice and flowing trail with entry at Belle Kreuz. Here you can really step on the gas and surf (if the weather is suitable).
Have fun, ride safe!

Rheinstein Castle

Highlight • Castle

The picturesque location of the castle Rheinstein enchanted in 1823 the Prince Frederick of Prussia, who also bought the castle promptly. At that time, the castle was little more than a dilapidated ruin, but after several years of reconstruction, the Prince could move into his domicile. The castle was then built with careful preservation of the medieval fabric to a romanticized residential castle.

This form is preserved to this day and can be visited. The castle now houses a museum and an adjoining restaurant. In addition, the view from the wall and from the towers down to the Rhine Valley is simply picturesque. If you can not get enough of the castle, then you should also look at the accommodation offers.

You can find all information about opening times and entrance fees at burg-rheinstein.de.
