Remagen Bridge Towers

Highlight • Monument

The remains of the former bridge look really impressive and were worth a longer stop on our Rhine tour.

Linz–Remagen Rhine Ferry

Highlight • Ferry

The best opportunity to switch from one side of the Rhine to the other, or (if possible again) from the right bank of the Rhine to the Aar cycle path.

75 kilometers of Upper German Limes, the former border between the Roman Empire and the Germanic tribal areas, run here. About 18.5 kilometers of the Limes route run through the Neuwied districts. Because of this, an initiative was launched to present it accordingly. So far, watchtowers and a fort have been uncovered and a route has been provided with information boards on which the individual sentries have been marked with their location.

Wine tour 2023 - for six! The name quickly becomes the program: the weather, or rather the constant rain, is enough to make you cry. The only thing that helps is dry Pinot Noir early in the day and the laughter returns. We set up our quarters in Unkel, right on the Rhine. There are some prominent residents in the …

Went to Remagen on the Rhine with the whole family today. The tour went beautifully along the Rhine and we crossed it twice with the ferry. A highlight for the children, of course.
Highly recommended for families because it can be done without any problems.
Stay Tuned and until the days ✌️😎🚴‍♂️

Today we took advantage of the nice weather and went on a tour along the Rhine. The start and finish was Bad Honnef. Always nice along the water, we took the ferry once on the way there and back. We had lunch right on the Rhine promenade. A great trip 😊

Round trip along the Rhine, on both sides of the Rhine. With interesting perspectives. And the towns we passed would have been worth a look, but I was initially attracted by the route, which was new to me. The ferry connections are fast, hardly any waiting time. In terms of riding technique, the left bank of the Rhine is better, …
