This day stage begins on Mannheimer Straße near the BG Clinic Mannheim, passes through Oggersdorf, and then runs on the edge of settlements over fields. Near Oppau, it skirts the BASF factory area in the north and leads to Theodor-Heuss-Bridge, which spans the Rhine. We continue on the left Rhine bank on long bike paths and towpaths up to Petersau, where we walk on the main Rhine dam to Nonnenbusch. There we keep right until the Rhine access, which we cross and go straight to a parking lot. From the dam, we branch off to Friedrichsweg and reach Ludwigstraße in Worms after 3.1 km. We cross it at the Jahn monument and go through Wollstraße directly to the Cathedral of St. Peter.

The penultimate stage of the Lutherweg 1521 from Mettenheim through plenty of vineyards to Abenheim. Many beautiful views, some information boards, and towards the end various art pieces in the vineyard. These somewhat make up for the fact that the path becomes relatively monotonous towards the end.

The 1st stage of the RheinTerrassenWeg starts at Herrnsheim Castle. Then it goes crisscross through the vineyards, although with still quite few spectacular moments, to the station in Osthofen. At least you hardly have to climb any slopes, but there is also little shade or benches.
