Through Rheinhessen without a care

For most people, holidays are the best part of the year. Everyone - including people with reduced mobility - wants their holiday to be as relaxing, restful and pleasurable as possible.

In Rheinhessen everyone can enjoy themselves to the full - especially if you appreciate typical Rheinhessen joie de vivre and warm hospitality. Here you can forget your cares and concentrate on enjoying the region's delightful tranquillity. Culture, glorious scenery, excellent wines and culinary specialities all make Rheinhessen a popular holiday destination.

The brochure "Rheinhessen - Barrierefrei 2005 - Unbeschwert durch's Land der 1000 Hügel" has detailed descriptions of all barrier-free holiday packages in Rheinhessen. It is in easy-read format and can also be read by partially sighted people using a screen and reading aid.
