Rambling and Hiking Boppard is not just the destination of a Rhine tour, but also the perfect point of departure for excursions of discovery, which begins with good, firm shoes and a rucksack. The RheinBurgenWeg connects the finest castles and historical places of interest en route and in Boppard itself it offers a special sport feature in the form of the 'Klettersteig'. Climbing rungs, ladders and steel cords are an accompaniment to this very special challenge providing excitement and adventure. On the right bank of the Rhine, and with the ferry only stone's throw away from Boppard, the 'Rheinsteig' offers wanderers a climb of high standard of climbing. Actually, the route is over 320 kilometres long and leads from Wiesbaden to Bonn. However, probably the most impressive stretch of this path is that lying above the Loreley Valley, which is on Boppard's doorstep so to speak. In addition, a number of beautiful circular paths passing through woodland belonging to the town or through the orchards, vineyard terraces and meadows elegantly round off this selection of rambling opportunities.
