St. Francis of Assisi Statue and Viewpoint

Highlight • Monument

Beautiful vantage point above the Apollinari church, which can be reached via numerous steps.
The view of the Rhine Valley and the Apollinariskirche reward the little effort.

Super round and very well signposted, of course I lost my way for a short time anyway 😃.
Unfortunately, the order of the photos is not correct 🥺

It rained heavily yesterday and today, but when we started our Apollinaris Loop around 10 a.m., the skies were on our side. No more rain – and the sun even came out at midday. The RheinBurgenWeg is a beautiful, varied tour that combines nature, culture, and magnificent views!

This year ends with a beautiful winter hike for two 💕. The Apollinaris Church near Remagen is really worth seeing. From there it goes up over the Rhine hills. Some of the paths were a bit muddy, but all of them were very lonely. The route doesn't offer any great highlights, but it is very well guided and signposted.

pigs with wool. There's probably only at the Apollinaris Loop. Can you knit a coat out of it...?

Today, we were supposed to take the Linz Basalt Loop. A quick look at the DB app was disappointing: the connection was canceled. To avoid starting at midday, we rescheduled for Remagen.

From the Apollinarisberg in Remagen, the route takes a generous loop through lonely forest sections and open fields with magnificent views all the way home and into the Ahr Valley. A scenically great, lonely loop! In places it is still muddy in the forest; sturdy treads and robust shoes are recommended.

My original plan was to hike the Klingelfloß Dream Loop as my year-end hike. But when I looked out the window this morning, I thought: With the light snowfall, I'd rather take the train to Remagen. I already hiked the Apollinaris Loop once, back in July 2023. Although there are still plenty of official hiking trails in the Koblenz area …
