    Schöne, abwechslungsreiche Rundtour, die sich auf den Bahntrassen sehr gut fahren lässt. In den Ortschaften führt die Strecke z. T. auf befahrenen Nebenstraßen. Gute durchgehende Beschilderung, schöne Rastplätze und mehrere Einkehrmöglichkeiten.

    Eine sehr abwechslungsreiche Tour, mit Schiffahrt zwischen Hessen und Rheinland-Pfalz. Selbst der Abschnitt durch Mainz war ein echtes Highlight. Als es dann so richtig auf alten Bahntrassen zwischen Mainz und Dexheim verlief, war es richtig toll. Zum Abschluß gab es am Dorfeingang zu Dexheim noch einen schönen Schoppenstand zum Durstlöschen.

    Zu jeder Jahreszeit empfehlenswerter Spaziergang mit herrlichem Weitblick über das Rebenmeer um Opppenheim und Nierstein. Am besten einen Schoppen in den Rucksack packen - entlang des Weges laden mehrere Picknickplätze zur Rast. Am Wochenende lohnt es sich, früh aufzubrechen. Oppenheim ist ein überaus beliebtes Ausflugsziel.

    Es ist ein sehr leichte aber wunderschöne Wanderung durch die Weinberge zwischen Oppenheim und Nierstein mit toller Aussicht auf Schwabsburg, Nierstein die skyline von Ffm sowie Feldberg im Taunus. Es besteht ein herrlicher Ausblick auf den Rhein bei Nierstein mit den beiden Kirchen als Orientierung vor dem roten Hang und der Niersteiner Warte. Besonders schön ist ein Rast auf dem Trutzturm in den Weinbergen und herlichem Blick auf Nierstein und ins Rhein-Main-Gebiet. Als Abschluss bietet siche eine schöne Wanderung durch Oppenheim mit Ruine Landskron-der Katharinenkirche-dem Rathaus und Gautor. Wir sind die Tour vom Parkplatz am Friedhof am Ortseingang gelaufen.
