Swing with a View of the Rhine Valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

Someone had an unusual idea here: in addition to the normal benches, there is a wooden porch swing. It's all about leaning back, gently rocking back and forth and enjoying the wonderful view of the Rhine Valley.

At first, we were a bit confused that the premium hiking trail 'Im Breisiger Ländchen' was signposted as the Rhine Castle Trail. But once we figured that out, the tour turned out to be a very pleasant loop. …

My personal highlight: a swing above Bad Breisig, …
