The Selz River is the hydrographic axis of Rheinhessen. It flows for over 60 km in a large arc through Rheinhessen before emptying into the Rhine near Ingelheim. Hiking trails and a continuous cycle path (Selztal Cycle Path) run along the Selz. Anyone hiking in Rheinhessen should visit the source of the Selz. Cycling along the Selz also offers a beautiful cross-section of the Rheinhessen landscape.
