June 20, 2025,Schloss Arenfels – Blick auf Schloss Arenfels Runde von Linz (Rhein)

A beautiful tour to Bad Hönnigen through lots of forest and trails. The return trip down along the Rhine via the bike path wasn't very pleasant. Only blacktop and no shade (30 degrees Celsius). Through three villages without any places to stop for refreshments 🤷🙄.

Linz am Rhein 👍
Parking at the train station is free 💪
It starts through Linz's old town, passing through Dattenberg, Leubsdorf, and Ariendorf 👍
Beautiful tour with some climbs and stunning views of the Rhine. It's worth it.

5/5 ⭐, a stage exactly as you would expect from the Rheinsteig with a varied mix of forest, meadows, vineyards, small villages worth seeing and magnificent views of the Rhine. The start is from the charming Linz market square with its half-timbered houses at St. Martin's Church with an old cemetery where the graves are scattered seemingly at random, up …
