Bad Hönningen, Germany Hiking on the Rhine

What to expect

Bad Hönningen, Germany sits on a classic stretch of the Middle Rhine where riverside walking meets the first wooded rises of the Westerwald. From town, trails link toward Rheinbrohl and the opening stages of the Westerwaldsteig, with broad views over the Rhine and across to the hills beyond. It is a good base for hikers who want marked routes, steep vineyard-side ascents, and a strong sense of the river landscape.
