Rhine River Day 2

We drove up the Rhine on the second day and toured Rheinfels Castle at St. Goar. It was started in 1245 by Count Diether V of Katzenelnbogen. After expansions, it was the largest fortress in the Middle Rhein Valley between Koblenz and Mainz.

Later in the afternoon, we took a short walk into the vineyard at Bacharach and had some fantastic views from the top of the tower.
