It's really beautiful here. There's no asphalt in places, but it's still easy to ride.

Meadow Bridge over the Elz

Highlight • Bridge

The meadow bridge built in 1898 over the Elz, the Wasserer Weir built in 1921 and the covered wooden bridge are all worth seeing.

On the way from the A5 underpass to Riegel am Kaiserstuhl and the bridge over the Elz, you have a view of the former brewery of Riegeler beer, which was brewed here until 2003 and was advertised on television before the turn of the millennium (...with rock spring water brewed). The buildings above the river and the parallel Kaiserestuhl railway line and Am Michalsberg street also have a strong impact on the view of the Kaiserstuhl when you drive on the A5 motorway.
According to Wikipedia, the buildings were converted and developed into Riegeler Lofts with living and working spaces as well as service and commercial areas.
