Rhine and Roman Loop (formerly Rhine Loop for Connoisseurs)

From the Rülzheim recreational center, where the Alla-Hopp facility and the beach pool are located, we ride towards the town center via the street "Alte Mühlgasse." We turn right into Mittlere Ortsstraße and then immediately right again into Hoppelgasse heading towards the cemetery. Behind the cemetery, we continue on the bike path along L 540. We follow this all the way to Rheinzabern. At the town entrance, turn right into "Neun Morgen" street, then into Bahnhofstraße and finally turn left into Mühlgasse and Hauptstraße. We follow Hauptstraße and ride on the bike path to Jockgrim. At the entrance to Jockgrim, turn right into Buchstraße. We follow this street straight ahead until we arrive back at Jockgrim station. From the station, we ride into Bahnhofstraße, then turn right into Gartenstraße. At the end of Gartenstraße, turn left into Ziegelbergstraße and come back onto Bahnhofstraße. We follow Bahnhofstraße, which turns into Ludwigstraße after a right curve. About 100 m after the right curve, turn left down a small street towards the Johanneswiese gravel lake. Passing by the gravel lake, at the end of the street, turn left onto the agricultural path heading towards the Rhine. Over a bridge, we cross the B9 and finally reach a bike crossing where we turn left. Always riding along the dike, just before the old Rhine branch, turn left towards Neupotz. At the end of the path, turn right towards the anglers' clubhouse, which is a good spot for a stop and a small snack. We then ride left into Neupotz. In Neupotz at the intersection Friedhofstraße/Am Otterbach, we join the Riesling-Zander bike path (logo Zander with wine glass). We turn right onto "Am Otterbach" street and follow the Riesling-Zander bike path out of Neupotz until the Rhine bike path (blue sign with cyclist). Then we ride on the Rhine bike path towards Germersheim. Shortly after the PWV lock house, turn left towards Sondernheim. Via Rheinstraße, Gartenstraße, and Hördtstraße, we reach the bike path along L 552 towards Hördt. Before Hördt, we join the Klingbach bike path (green sign with bell). We follow the Klingbach bike path back to Rülzheim. In Rülzheim, we leave the Klingbach bike path at Eisenbahnstraße, which turns into the street "Am Deutschordensplatz." At the end of the street, turn right into Mittlere Ortsstraße. Then turn left again into Alte Mühlgasse back to the recreational center, our starting point of the route.
