Description
Description
Rhine for pleasure! A boat trip on Germany's longest river. The old Rhine has many faces. Over its 1,200 kilometers, it foams wildly through tight curves and leisurely winds through green meadows. Along its course, it passes medieval castles and the blast furnaces of the Ruhr region, runs along the Rheinsteig trail, and passes between picturesque towns that invite you to moor. Where Hagen von Tronje sank the treasure of the Nibelungs and the Loreley turned the heads of sailors with her song, sport boaters today still find wild romance as well as tranquil river idylls.
The inland waterway guide "The Rhine" depicts the entire navigable course of the river from the Rhine Falls near Schaffhausen in Switzerland to the North Sea estuary in the Netherlands. Several excursions into attractive tributaries are also described in detail.
