The Rhine-Westerwald Nature Park is a protected area and hiking region of approximately 470 km² located east of the Rhine. It encompasses tranquil forests, idyllic stream and river valleys (including the Wied Valley), rare animal and plant species, and historical remnants such as Roman border fortifications (Limes). Nearly half of its area is forested, and therefore numerous hiking trails, including tree-lined paths, offer diverse nature experiences. https://www.changehealthcare.com.co

The Kasbach Valley would be just one of many small, wildly romantic but insignificant side valleys of the great river of "Father Rhine" were it not for the connection from Kasbach - located between the Erpeler Ley and Linz am Rhein - to the heights of Kalenborn, which is valued by many railway nostalgia enthusiasts.

The Ludendorff Bridge, known as the Remagen Bridge, was a two-track railway bridge over the Rhine between Remagen and Erpel. It was commissioned for military reasons in 1916 during the First World War and named in honor of the Army Quartermaster General, Erich Ludendorff, on May 1, 1918, for the inauguration of Kaiser Wilhelm II. On March 7, 1945, at the end of the Second World War, a small vanguard of US soldiers reached the undamaged bridge and captured it. Wehrmacht soldiers tried in vain to destroy the bridge in the days following its capture, because according to the Wehrmacht leadership's plans, all Rhine bridges were to be blown up. However, less explosives (300 kg instead of 600 kg) and less efficient explosives (Donarit instead of Ekrasit) were used than planned. During the demolition, the bridge was briefly lifted from its supports. It finally collapsed on March 17, 1945, likely as a result of the demolition. The Peace Museum in the bridge towers, located since 1980, impressively displays images and documents from that time, everyday items and equipment of the soldiers fighting on the bridge, and much more. Visitors are immersed in the historical events of the Battle of Remagen at the original site and will understand the significance of capturing this bridge and the courage and determination required to face the associated real dangers, even one's own death. The bridge towers on the Remagen side are used as a Peace Museum. On the Erpel side, cultural events take place in the tunnel.
