View of the Rhine from the Teufelskadrich

Highlight • Viewpoint

Hut with benches without a table for a rest on the Rheinsteig.
Unfortunately, there is no direct view of the Rhine from the hut.
The observation bench a few meters further on offers an even greater view of the Rhine.

April 7, 2026,07.04.26 Wanderbare Weinberge: Rheinsteig zwischen Assmannshausen und Lorch

Duration hike: approx. 8 hours 30 minutes.
(spent almost 2 hours sitting by the Rhine, otherwise took lots of photos, Komoot predicted 6 hours duration)
Duration of movement: approx. 3 hours 15 minutes.
Route length: 17.6 km

Photos will follow gradually. And I still need to think of a short text.

A mostly beautiful, but also challenging route (given the temperatures during my hike). Unfortunately, the gastronomy along the way was closed or not (yet) open. The winery in Lorch near the church provided the necessary refreshment at the end.

The noise from the opposite quarry on part of the route was not nice.

Back on the Rheinsteig after 3 months. Unfortunately I had some problems recording it. There were 2 tours and part of the second part is still missing. But it was very beautiful again 🥰. The stage went through vineyards and forest. The castles 🏰 were on the opposite side of the Rhine this time, so you always had beautiful views …

Yes, what should I write about it? Pictures speak for themselves.

I have now hiked this stage for the second time, the first time in the direction of the river source... today in the direction of the river mouth.... the same hike but completely different... back then I had hiked the entire Rheinsteig... now I'll pick it the most beautiful …

November 29, 2025,Rheinsteig Etappe 5 Rüdesheim-->Lorch

Hello fellow hikers. Today I was out with my hiking group again. We entered the Middle Rhine Valley. This should have offered us wonderful views, but unfortunately, the fog somewhat dampened our expectations. Luckily, it improved as the hike progressed. The group got along wonderfully, and so we still had a lot of fun. The route itself is very easy …

A really nice Rheinsteig stage. One can say that here from Rüdesheim the Rheinsteig is really beautiful, and just as you imagine it: down in the valley of the Rhine and up on the mountains of the hiking trails.
The stage starts above Rüdesheim at the Niederwald monument (at the cable car). The monument with the Germania is always worth …
