Today, in the sunshine, we headed to the Rhine Valley vineyards—sunshine and a prime location on Premiumweg. The grapes look good and juicy. Finally, we headed to the hotspot of Germania/Niederwalddenkmal. Of course, there were several cafes, tourists, and crowds—but also very impressive and imposing. (Not destroyed in the war, despite the strategically good visibility).

Today I took the train 🚆 to Rüdesheim. I hiked the large Rüdesheim loop trail and then briefly visited the Christmas market 🌲🕯😋. I finished with mulled wine and then headed back to the train station 👍
This trip is highly recommended 😃

The tour is actually called the "Great Rüdesheimer Runde"
But since I only started at around 2:00 p.m., I left out Rüdesheim 😅!
Will definitely be made up 😉
Otherwise it is a really very nice path through the vineyards with great viewpoints 😎👍

In 1774, Count Karl Maximilian von Ostein designed the Niederwald into a romantic landscape park with an English character based on the parks of …

Today at breakfast on the terrace, we decided to finally hike the Great Rüdesheim Loop, which has been on our to-do list for ages. It officially starts in Rüdesheim at Brömserburg Castle. However, parking there isn't free. This is a good place to start the hike if you arrive by train. You can find the GPX download for the Rüdesheim …
