The Mapper ski jump is a well-preserved gate fortification of the Rheingau region - one of the strongest medieval land forces in Germany.

The Rheingau Brueck consisted essentially of a 50-meter-wide fouling strip, which was formed from closely set grove or beech bushes. Their young shoots were bent down (bent) to the ground and intertwined to form an impenetrable natural barrier.

Rauenthaler Spange Loop

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

'Single' trail does not quite meet. This beautiful trail is easy to navigate in both directions and is usually wide and clear enough to share it with other users, hikers and cyclists.

Johannisberg Castle

Highlight • Castle

Johannisberg Castle: The grounds are very extensive, the neoclassical building is beautiful to look at, and the view is magnificent: it encompasses not only the vineyards, but also allows you to see as far as Wiesbaden and Mainz; even the Donnersberg is visible.

The castle, incidentally, made wine history with the invention of the Spätlese wine; wine lovers are advised to explore this connection online (exciting, but too extensive to reproduce here).
