Highlight • Monument
As the Rhine often changed its riverbed here, the border also changed from time to time. So today the stone stands on the German side of the Rhine.
The number 67 indicates the number of the department.

"Pouring" are subterranean parts of the river that reappear in other places. The fishermen describe waters poor in nutrients with little fish stocks as "deaf".
The nature photographer Thomas Kaiser has published some of his extraordinary photos from the Rheinauen on his website, including Taubergießen (naturfoto-thomaskaiser.de/rheinauen.html).

Despite all the forecasts, we were lucky and it stayed dry up above.
A cozy little hike that's sure to be very nice in spring.

Today, under brilliant sunshine and spring-like temperatures, the hike was a delight from beginning to end! 🤩🔝
The contrast between the expansive dry meadows and the riparian forest crisscrossed by streams could hardly be greater.
The Taubergießen nature reserve is incomparably beautiful here (especially near Dornskopf)! 🤩
