Mittelrhein Klettersteig Boppard

The Mittelrhein Klettersteig extends through vineyard slopes above the Rhine River, featuring steel cables, ladders, and secured climbing sections along a 5.4-kilometer path.

Since its establishment in 2006, this via ferrata has transformed the Rhine Valley region into a notable destination for climbing enthusiasts and outdoor recreation.

The via ferrata path integrates with the local wine culture, passing through traditional Rhenish vineyards and offering views of medieval castles along the Rhine.

The route requires basic climbing equipment including harnesses and helmets, with gear rentals available at the ARAL gas station near the St. Remigius parking area.

The path combines 300 meters of elevation gain with multiple entry and exit points, allowing climbers to customize their experience based on skill level.
