Bike like a local

Discover the Rheingau on two wheels

Cycle and have fun - this is the motto of the free "Bike like a local" offer in the Rheingau, a combination of cycling, history and stories!

Bicycle handlebars in vineyards

On the 55-kilometre circular tour, you will cycle past 16 stations where you can stop, take a break and play audio and video clips with exciting information about the Rheingau on your smartphone. The route, which you can also download to your smartphone, connects Rüdesheim with Eltville and includes all the villages along the banks of the Rhine, as well as the hillside communities of Kiedrich, Hallgarten and Johannisberg and Windeck.

In the clips, which are available on the website below, narrators present the Rheingau and its sights in two to three entertaining minutes. Sometimes as a narrator presenting a town or a theme, other times as an imaginary person or historical personality. Sometimes local animals slip into the role of the narrator, so that it doesn't get boring along the way.

You can join the route at any point, and you can also shorten the route.

As the project was financed with money from the tourism contribution, the offer is free of charge.
