"From Bingen to Cologne, through the legendary landscapes of the Romantic Rhine.
From Bingen, Eurovélo 15 extends to the north west, towards the Lorelei Valley. UNESCO listed the Upper Middle Rhine Valley - one of the oldest and most impressive natural landscapes in Germany - as a World Heritage Site.
Between the Mouse Tower - Mäuseturm - of Bingen and the German Corner - Deutsches Eck - of Koblenz, there are no fewer than twenty-nine stronghold castles, most of which lie in ruins, which bear witness to a rich and turbulent history. Kings, princes, counts and bishops - all sought to build their castles on the of the Rhine."
