Beautiful view of the Binger Loch, with a bench. Look through the branches a few meters before the viewpoint for photos.

August 29, 2025,Über den Dächern von Bingen ✝️ 🌳
In wonderful hiking weather, we explored the Rochusberg, a 47-hectare mountain located within the Bingen city forest. We were surprised by the many nature trails and the views: the Niederwald Monument with Germania in the Rheingau, the Nahe estuary, the Mäuseturm (Mouse Tower), the Kaiser-Friedrich-Turm (Emperor's Tower), the Rochus Chapel, and, of course, the Rhine.
