View of Bad Breisig and Arenfels Castle

Highlight • Viewpoint

There is a great view of the "Golden Mile". A flat landscape between Bad Breisig and Remagen. It got its name from the fertile soil. When the weather is good, the Siebengebirge with the Drachenfels can be seen in the background. In the foreground, Arenfels Castle attracts the eyes of hikers. The medieval castle was converted into a neo-Gothic castle in the 19th century by Zwirner, a cathedral builder.

View of Burg Olbrück

Highlight • Viewpoint

Even though the castle no longer exists and only the remains of a ruin remain, the former keep has survived the test of time (or has been restored accordingly) and still stands proudly. Its silhouette is a visible symbol in the landscape.

View of the Vinxtbach Valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

The valley was cut into the landscape by the Vinxtbach. The brook used to be an important border between Germania Superior and Inferior for the Romans and later between the Archdiocese of Cologne and Trier. Because of the barrier, even the language in the two areas had developed a little differently.
Waldorf is a village with many beautiful half-timbered houses.

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.

View of Bad Breisig and the Rhine

Highlight • Viewpoint

On the mountain above Bad Breisig you have a wonderful view over the place and the Rhine Valley. There are also several benches here for a short break.

From here you have a beautiful view of the Rhine Valley and the spa towns of Bad Breisig on this side and Bad Hönningen on the other side of the Rhine.
