Join me on a nature experience hike through the nature reserve, which is unique in Rheinhessen.<\/p>\n\n<p>There is ample parking right next to the fire station in Eich, where we start our tour. Whether with an all-terrain baby carriage, balance bike or as a hiking pro: the route is suitable for all ages and is an ideal start to the hiking season. You should plan 2.5 - 3 hours for this nature experience. The highlight of the hike is not climbing the Rhine-Hessian hills, but exploring the flora and fauna that call the Old Rhine area home.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2443a3d e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"2443a3d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b987dc3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-gallery\" data-id=\"b987dc3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-gallery\">\n\t\t\t\n<a data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"b987dc3\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Beschilderung_Altrheinerlebnispfad_1\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTYxMTcsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9yaGVpbmhlc3NlbmJsb2cuZGVcL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcLzIwMjVcLzA0XC9CZXNjaGlsZGVydW5nX0FsdHJoZWluZXJsZWJuaXNwZmFkXzEtc2NhbGVkLmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6ImI5ODdkYzMifQ%3D%3D\" href='https:\/\/rheinhessenblog.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Beschilderung_Altrheinerlebnispfad_1-scaled.jpg'><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"201\" src=\"https:\/\/rheinhessenblog.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Beschilderung_Altrheinerlebnispfad_1-300x201.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Signpost for the Old Rhine Adventure Trail with stylized wild goose and blue-green colour scheme, mounted on a post against a clear sky -

What is the \"seawater\" here all about or what does a \"crested newt\" look like?<\/p>\n<p>Interested hikers will find extensive information along the scenic hike.<\/p>\n<p>View is a good keyword: an observation tower has been built about halfway along the adventure trail. If you climb it, you have a sensational view over the approx. 65-hectare water surface of the central Old Rhine Lake and the approx. 20-hectare \"Mausmeer\" reedbed and alluvial forest area. The course of the Rhine and the hills of the Odenwald can be seen in the distance.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ad72960 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"ad72960\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6451ddb elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"6451ddb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/rheinhessenblog.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Beobachtungsturm_1-768x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-16147\" alt=\"Wooden observation tower with covered platform and visitors -
