Riesling is different! On the dry, shallow, and stony south-facing slopes, no vine grows better than Riesling. It loves the summer sun but also withstands winter frost much better than other grape varieties. The older the vines get, the more complex their root system becomes. Decades-old Riesling vines can root up to twenty meters deep. Ideal for excellent supply of valuable minerals. Despite its minimal global share of four percent, the Riesling vine is found in almost all growing regions of the international wine world. In the Rheingau, it occupies almost 80% of the vineyard area.

From the Walluf wine tasting stand, via Martinsthal, to Rauenthal, through Baiken, to the Gebhardt winery and to the Eltville wine tasting stand. From here, you can either walk back to Walluf along the Rhine or take the train or bus back. The aim was to lead the route as much as possible through the vineyards or directly along the Rhine. It is well known that there is little shade in the vineyards.

    Schönes Waldgebiet, größtente8ls gute Wege. Die Verbindung zwischen Rauental und Martinstal war leider im Dickicht verschwunden, umgestürzter Baum, Brombeersträucher... Jetzt, wo ich das Stück kenne, wurde ich den Weg auf jeden Fall nochmal gehen. Ich habe für die Strecke ohne größere Pause 3,5 h gebraucht.

    Tolle Route, die Rheinsteigzubringer und Rheinsteighauptwanderweg zu einem Rundweg kombiniert. Schön auch die kleinen Abweichungen in Schierstein durch den alten Ortskern an der Kirche vorbei und der Schlenker an der Drehliege des VGV vorbei am Waldrand von Walluf mit super Blick.

    Ja, es ist eine längere Wanderung mit einigen Mittelgebirgstypischen Steigungen. Wer sich aber die notwendige Zeit nimmt wird mit einer herrlichen Tour belohnt. Super, dass Start und Ziel am Bahnhof sind und damit gut und autofrei erreichbar

    Sehr Abwechslungsreiche Rundtour. Zu Beginn geht es bergauf durch die Weinberge. Am Goethestein erwart den Wanderer eine wunderbare Aussicht über den Rheingau und das Rheintal und Sitzgelegenheiten laden zur Rast ein. Nach Abstieg nach Frauenstein folgt eine längere Etappe durch den Wald bevor man oberhalb von Martinsthal wieder in die Weinberge gelangt. Der Weg führt am Waldrand entlang und der Blick schweift weit über das Rheintal. Der Rückweg zum Parkplatz folgt durch die Weinberge, Sehr gelungene Tour.
