Boppard
A historic town beside the Rhine's largest bend, with Roman fortress wall remains, a riverside promenade and the steep Bopparder Hamm vineyards.
Boppard preserves the walls and towers of a 4th-century Roman fortress. Its old town has the Romanesque St. Severus Church and the Electoral Castle Museum, and the Rhine promenade is ideal for a stroll. Nearby, you can ride a chairlift to the Vierseenblick viewpoint at the top of the hill, or hike along the Rhine trail through the Bopparder Hamm vineyards. Trains and river boats both stop here, making it a good base for the northern section of the valley.
