Illspitz mouth of the Rhine

Highlight • River

The Ill River flows directly into the Alpine Rhine at the so-called Illspitz – a popular meeting place for cyclists and walkers who enjoy cooling off in the water or having a picnic. Not far away is the modern Illspitz power plant, which has been generating electricity since 2014 and also incorporates ecological improvements such as fish ladders and renaturalized river sections.

Illspitz Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The Rhine cycle path crosses the Ill here. On the way you can enjoy the great view of the forest and the river. You cross the Ill in the immediate vicinity. Very nice place to take a short break.

Rhine Cycle Path on the Rhine Embankment

Highlight • Cycleway

The Rhine Cycle Route on the Rhine dam is a well-developed paved bike path and leads on both sides of the Rhine to Vaduz (I was not further away). Along the way there are many opportunities to relax and swim. Very great views of the Rhine and tributaries, as well as meadows and mountains. An intoxicating sight.
