From Leubsdorf to Unkel

The Rheinsteig trail's 19th stage instantly leads you uphill again. There are lots of great views along the way, and the trail passes historic castles and churches as well as nice villages. The scenic town of Linz am Rhein, also known as the "colourful town by the Rhine” because of its many coloured, half-timbered houses, is also on today's programme.

 

Ockenfels Castle

It invites you for an extended visit and a stop at one of the nice Inns. Ockenfels castle is the next spot with a good view overlooking the Rhine Valley, and this is followed by another, extremely scenic view at the Erpeler Ley.
