Discover the region

Accommodation
Geographically, Ober-Hilbersheim is located on the western edge of the Rhine-Main region and is surrounded by rolling hills. The region is known for its vineyards and offers breathtaking views of the Rhine as well as the nearby cities of Mainz and Bingen.

An absolute highlight are the numerous sights in the area: visit the Eberbach monastery or discover the historic old towns of Mainz and Bingen. A trip to Klopp Castle is also worthwhile - here you can not only visit an impressive fortress complex, but also enjoy a magnificent view over the river.

Cultural highlights also abound: In spring, a visit to the Jazz Festival in Mainz or the International Days Ingelheim Jazz Days is recommended. The Museum of Ancient Shipping in Mainz is also not to be missed - ancient shipwrecks are exhibited here!

In addition to all these activities, culinary experiences should of course not be missed! Be sure to try the regional Riesling wine or sample local specialities such as Handkäs mit Musik (a sour cheese) or Spundekäs (a type of Obatzda).

For outdoor activities, hiking tours through the vineyards are a great option - autumn is the best time to admire the play of colours in the leaves. A bike tour along the Rhine is also an experience in itself.

And what to do if it rains? No worries - in Mainz there are numerous museums and galleries such as the Gutenberg Museum or the Mainz Art Museum that are well worth a visit.

In summary, Ober-Hilbersheim is definitely worth a visit! Whether you want to experience cultural highlights or simply relax - this region has something to offer for everyone. And where exactly is the most beautiful? You'll have to find out for yourself!

    Ein schöner Weg und wirklich nur im Frühling oder Herbst zu laufen. Kaum Schatten aber tolle Rastmöglichkeiten und eine Super Fernsicht auf der Höhe.

    Eine schöne Runde, abwechslungsreich und wenig los für einen Samstag. Wir haben noch den Schlenker zur Altstadt Ingelheim gemacht und haben Kaffee getrunken. Danke für die Ausarbeitung der Tour.

    Heute bei sonnigem Frühlingswetter diese schöne und abwechslungsreiche Rundtour gemacht. Die Strecke ist durchgehend asphaltiert und mit E-Bike sind die Anstiege gut zu meistern. Die blühenden Obstbäume zu dieser Jahreszeit und die wunderschönen Fernsichten machen den besonderen Reiz der Route aus. Es gibt allerdings keinen Schatten, deshalb unbedingt auf Sonnenschutz achten.

    Tolle aussichtsreiche Streckentour durch die typische rheinhessische Landschaft. Weite Fernblicke. Ideal für Frühjahr oder Herbst oder kühle Sommertage da wenig Schatten. Zahlreiche Rastplätze, hervorzuheben ist das Zotzenheimer Horn. Lange Tour, aber nicht überbordend schwer.

    Eine sehr schöne Tour. Habe diese etwas gekürzt. Ich kann aber diese Tour absolut weiterempfehlen. Wir empfanden diese Tour aber nicht als schwer. Eher eine moderate, sehr aussichtsreiche Tour.

    Vielen Dank, das war eine sehr schöne Tour mit abwechslungsreichen Abschnitten. Wer Weinberge, Felder und einen offenen Himmel über sich liebt, wird diese Strecke lieben. Meines Erachtens ist diese Strecke das ganze Jahr wunderbar zu laufen. Sicherlich im Herbst eine Augenweide. Das letzte Drittel der Strecke ist einfach ein Traum. So schöne Aussichtspunkte habe ich schon lange nicht gesehen. Daher nochmals: Vielen Dank.

    Super Tour, Streckenführung. Die 2-3 Steigungen nicht unterschätzen. Am Ende geht es aber gemütlich bergab, durch tolle Dörfer zum Ziel.
