If you wait in Nierstein at the ferry dock, you can have a nice look on the other side to the grain sand (just before Geinsheim), on the other side there is also a kiosk directly on the Rhine. This is very often visited by motorcyclists. You can then examine very beautiful machines.

Gänsebrunnen Bechtolsheim

Highlight • Monument

Why a goose fountain is in the center of the village, said Mayor Harald Kemptner: "In the square, the geese of the village were previously driven together before they then came to the meadow." The idea of ​​keeping the history artistically, was the then chairman of the home club , Gerhard Fillinger, come. Since then, residents and visitors can admire five small geese standing with a shepherd boy at the fountain. "The place is especially popular with cyclists because it is part of the Selztal cycle path," explains Kempnter. The little boy, who holds a bunch of grapes in his hand, should also remember the viticulture in Bechtolsheim.

Off to the Petersberg

Highlight • Summit

From here, the climb to the Petersberg is worthwhile - the "mountain rating" to the summit at 245 meters is about 2 kilometers. At the top are the ruins of St. Peter's Church from the 10th century, once an important three-aisled basilica. In addition, of course, there are fantastic views over Rheinhessen and a rest at the "tables of wine". Here at the southern foot of the Petersberg you can also admire the largest collection of wild tulips north of the Alps.
