Highlight • Cycleway

Here, roughly at the level of the Layenmühle, you can enjoy a pleasant ride along this former railway line. It's even more fun with a gentle tuff-tuff-tuff on your lips! …

Vineyard swing

Highlight • Structure

A great spot in the vineyards – keep your eyes open, otherwise you'll drive past it and at first you'll only see the bench and the little house.

Gau-Algesheim Market Square

Highlight • Settlement

A very beautiful market square surrounded by the baroque town hall, the community center, and the Catholic Church of St. Cosmas and Damian with its 63-meter-high tower.

There's even a film about it from SWR 4: gau-algesheim.de/der-marktplatz-in-gau-algesheim.

Today marked the start of the Nieder-Olm district's city cycling event. I signed up again, but the timing wasn't ideal for me this year. I did manage to rack up a few kilometers. I headed toward Ingelheim and rode part of the Fruit Route.
