Fabulous castles in the romantic valley of the Middle Rhine, Germany

Hi everyone! Join us to explore six Middle Rhine castles, located in the UNESCO World Heritage region, and make some short hikes. My name is Roman and my passion for hiking appeared since childhood, when we went on small hikes in the Crimean Mountains with my parents. After, already in my student years, I, myself, led 3–5-day hikes in the Crimean Mountains with tents. Mountains are my passion. And having moved to Germany a few years ago, have continued to go hiking, enjoying the magnificent nature of this country.
