Geographically, Alzey lies on the edge of the wine-growing region of Rheinhessen and is surrounded by picturesque hills. The region attracts visitors not only with its idyllic landscape, but also with its culinary specialities such as the famous Rhine-Hessian wine.

Sights relevant to tourism include the 18th-century Alzey Castle, the St. Wenceslas Town Church and the Museum of Ancient Shipping - a must for all history lovers! The historic market square also invites you to linger and offers numerous cafés and restaurants.

Culturally, Alzey also has a lot to offer: From concerts to theatre performances to art exhibitions, events take place here on a regular basis. A special highlight are the annual wine festivals in summer, where you can enjoy the excellent regional wine.

For outdoor lovers, there are many opportunities for active recreation: hiking or cycling through the rolling hills around Alzey is especially beautiful in spring or autumn - when everything turns green or colourful. Water sports enthusiasts also get their money's worth: the nearby river Selztal is perfect for canoeing.

If it rains, you can visit the Museum of Ancient Shipping in Alzey or explore the town church of St. Wenzel.

    Wir sind ab Bahnhof Alzey gestartet und bis Ingelheim geradelt. Die Strecke ist sehr abwechslungsreich und führt durch wunderschöne Natur. Gerade jetzt im Frühling ein Genuss. Die Route ist durchgehend beschildert, die Wegbeschaffenheit ist in manchen Abschnitten nur mittelmäßig, meist jedoch sehr gut/gut.

    Schöne Aussicht über die Weinberge und Rheinebene. Am Fuße des Turms befinden sich Sitzbänke sowie eine Grillstelle. Der Zugang befindet sich hinter dem Turm. Beim Aufstieg vorsichtig sein. Einige Stufen verstecken sich vorm Tageslicht. Hier musste ich diese ertasten.

    Ich (Trekking-Rad) bin diese Tour mit meiner Frau (E-Bike) und meinem Sohn (10, 24" Rad) komplett gefahren und wir haben dann am Rhein in Ingelheim übernachtet. Es hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht, wobei meine Frau dann meinen Sohn bei Steigungen unterstützt hat. Zurück sind wir dann mittels Komoot von Ingelheim nach Orbis in gerader Linie, wobei Komoot dann auch entlang von Radwegen plant. Fazit: Tolle Tour, auf der man Rheinhessen kennen lernen kann. Klasse!

    Die ideale Tour, um Rheinhessen in allen Facetten in wunderbarer Landschaft kennenzulernen. Obwohl hier beheimatet haben wir in 2 Fahrradtagen vieles Neues hier gesehen und kennengelernt.

    Wir sind am Bahnhof von Osthofen gestartet und die Tour in umgekehrter Richtung gefahren. Dadurch war in den Weinbergen der Anstieg auf den Kloppberg sehr moderat. Der Mühlenweg geht ein Stück an der Autobahn, durch eine Baumreihen getrennt, aber trotzdem etwas laut. Die kurzen Verbindungsstücke auf den wenig befahrenen Landstraßen waren unproblematisch. Im ganzen eine abwechslungsreiche Tour mit tollen Ausblicken.

    Die geologischen Punkte sind die Highlights der Strecke, sowie die tollen Fernsichten. Diese Tour sollte man nicht an heißen-sonnigen Tagen gehen.(kein Schatten)Etwas Pfadanteil über Wiesen und an Buschwerk vorbei, sonst überwiegend befestigte Wege.
