Half-timbered houses in Rhens

August 4, 2023,14. 🧭WINDROSE-Tour von Hamburg ins "Ländle": Andernach - Sankt Goar

Today we leave Andernach early and drive along the river to Koblenz. Here we turn into the old town and drive up to the "Deutsches Eck", where the Moselle flows into the Rhine.
Now it goes on well-developed and heavily frequented cycle paths to Boppard. After a coffee break, we drive without long breaks to our destination of St. Goar. …

Actually, the ferry should be taken over and driven back on the other side, but all three participants didn't feel like it. All in all a pleasant tour with great weather. Just don't be surprised about the course of the route: the tour ended with a detour in Urmitz back home I have to get a new battery for my …

Over the Pfaffendorfer Bridge and on the right bank of the Rhine via …

May 31, 2024,Von Rhens nach Andernach

Start in Rhens before Koblenz, a great little town with half-timbered houses - worth a look, then to Koblenz to the Deutsches Eck, unfortunately the path was closed due to bridge renovation and the path through the town was not so great but the equestrian statue of Kaiser Wilhelm at the Deutsches Eck is also worth seeing. After Koblenz it …

August 24, 2024,St. Goarshausen- Bad Breisig

Today was castle day. I actually didn't see all of them between St. Goar and Bad Breisig. Some are actually just small ruins on the hillside and have at most a small flag. Others, like the Stolzenburg near Koblenz, are still preserved in their full glory and are still run as a hotel, youth hostel!!!, or are privately owned. Of …
