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.

Horse Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This small trail is often muddy and, as the name implies, is also used by the big four-legged friends. Still nice to ride!

What a day! I'd been anxiously waiting all week for Sunday to be rainy. Then both Friday and Sunday turned out to be fantastic. Cold and windy, but sunny. The colorful autumn forest couldn't be more beautiful. Just as I'd hoped for this magnificent tour above Bingen.
