High-level hiking

Welcome to the official web site for the RheinSteig

The RheinSteig is a 320 km trail on the right side of the Rhine that links Bonn, Koblenz and Wiesbaden on mainly narrow paths with steep climbs and descents, leading walkers and hikers to forests, vineyards and spectacular views.

Meticulously signposted and closely networked, the route is suitable for ambitious long-distance hikes and shorter walks rich in diversity, and is easily accessible by rail, boat and car and within reach of several airports. Yellow-marked access routes guide walkers safely to the main trail which is marked in blue, making it easy to plan out the route in stages.
