The church is usually open to visitors from mid-March to mid-November. Due to urgent, extensive rock securing work, however, it must remain completely closed from autumn 2018 to the end of 2020.

Great view of Oberhausen an der Nahe.
There is a large chestnut tree in front of the entrance to the Niederhausen-Schloßböckelheim winery.
After the ascent you should take a short break here to enjoy the view!

September 16, 2021,von Köln nach Idar-Oberstein. Part 3: Von Bad Kreuznach nach Idar-Oberstein
Really nice. The stage offers so much to see and do in between. Only those who want to go further drive past 😋

The cycle path along the Nahe is marketed as one of the top cycle paths in Rhineland-Palatinate, but what is offered in sections between Idar-Oberstein and Kirn is cheeky, dangerous and absolutely not recommended, especially not with children. Signage in places poor, then it's on the pavement through an industrial area with spontaneous side changes, then directly on the fast-traveled …

In May 2021 we rode the Nahe Cycle Path 🏞️ upstream from Bingen to Kirn. This time we wanted to test the other direction (downstream) and change the route a bit.
We have therefore moved the starting point from Kirn to Idar-Oberstein. Unfortunately not a particularly good decision: between Idar-Oberstein and Kirn the cycle path is mostly alongside the road …

We have already cycled along a few rivers in Germany and so of course made a spontaneous comparison:

We didn't really like the first half of this Nahe cycle path from Isar-Oberstein to Bad Sobernheim: The cycle path doesn't run close to the Nahe, but often runs for longer stretches along a busy road. You can only see the river …

1 bike tour for this year from Idar Oberstein to Bad Kreuznach on the Nahe cycle path.
I had done the route several times in the past and had fond memories of it.
It's ok for cycling, but for a really nice tour or if there are children with me, I can currently use the path. do not recommend. There …

Bike tour in very pleasant weather

Bike path signage could be better.
Sometimes you don't know how to ride. / have to

Another beautiful stretch of the Nahe Valley Cycle Path.
Unfortunately, up to Kirn, the route was almost entirely on the road (thankfully, it wasn't as busy today, as it was a holiday) or directly alongside it, so it wasn't that nice...

Today I cycled home comfortably with my wife along the nearby cycle path from Idar Oberstein. Of course with one or two stops to further our culinary education. The end then in our favorite pizzeria. All in all, a successful day.
