View of the Loreley and Upper Middle Rhine Valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Middle Rhine Valley with the Loreley is always worth a trip. The Loreley viewing platform offers a great view of the Upper Middle Rhine Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A staircase leads to the Loreley harbor and St. Goarshausen on foot. Another highlight is the open-air stage, which regularly hosts open-air events.

Loreley Statue on the Rhine

Highlight • Monument

The Loreley rock is located in the Rhein-Lahn district in the area of the Loreley community. The Loreley Plateau is part of the local community of Bornich, while the steep slopes and cliffs rising all around from the Rhine belong to the urban area of Sankt Goarshausen. The Loreley is located in the center of the St. Goarer Tal natural area as part of the main natural area Upper Middle Rhine Valley.

The Middle Rhine river bed, which is still 300 meters wide above the Kammereck, is narrowed to 145 meters by the rock barriers just above the Loreley, at the Betteck. At the Loreley itself, the Rhine was 160 meters wide and up to 25 meters deep. These are the narrowest and deepest parts of the Rhine in its navigable section. On the other hand, the two river banks directly downstream, at the Loreley harbor, diverge like a trough for a short stretch of up to 400 meters. At Sankt Goar and Sankt Goarshausen the stream is usually 250 meters wide. The Rhine winds through the rock massif in tight curves. Because of these very tight curves and strong currents, navigation on the Rhine from the Bankeck in Sankt Goar to Oberwesel is regulated by light signals.
