(coming soon)

Wine has been cultivated in the Middle Rhine Valley since the Roman era. The antiquity of the stone terraces is obvious in some cases, and one occasionally sees hillside vineyards which are obiously very old and have long since been overgrown with trees and bramble. Most, though, are well tended and productive. Wine tasting can vary from organized tours down to simply stopping at a roadside stand and sampling the products. It’s enjoyable either way.

As well as a place to go wine tasting, the area is great for exercise as it is laced with hiking/biking trails. These can be found on both sides of the river, such as those near the Lorelei and in the steep hillsides around Burg Rheinfels.
