ABOUT MOVIE
A fantastic journey amidst picturesque Rhine landscapes during the course of the seasons, which will afford the viewer intimate insights into the species-rich flora and fauna and will certainly whet their appetites for their own personal discovery tours.

No other German waterway has featured in literature, music and poetry as often as the Rhine. And no other region in Germany is as famous internationally as the Upper Middle Rhine Valley between Bingen, Rüdesheim and Koblenz. This spectacular river valley was recognised in 2002 as "a cultivated landscape of enormous diversity and beauty" by UNESCO and distinguished as a "World Heritage" site.

The large number of castles, the steep slope viticulture, the legendary Lorelei and the small hamlets that cling to the narrow riverbank beneath the steep slopes, are all ingredients that go into making the Rhine one of Germany's most romantic areas. The extraordinary amounts of natural riches in the Middle Rhine Valley on the other hand, are virtually unknown. In the wildly romantic and steep cliffs on both sides of the Rhine, a fascinating, almost unparalleled biodiversity abounds, including absolute treasures rarely found anywhere else other than in the wild nature of the Lorelei Valley.

I remember sailing on the Rhine from Boppard on a cruise. It was very interesting to see the shipping that uses the Rhine.The views were superb as well from it.

Amazing footage. This area is true paradise. May it be preserved forever.

In September of 2019, my daughter and I , took a day cruise up the Rhine river . It was truly wonderful. I enjoyed it very much.

Truly enjoyable travel and nature documentary. I only wish it and many of the other German-centric ones were available in 1080p.

To me. This video has been a breath of wonderful, fresh air! Thank you for posting it! ❤️

Have to wonder if ant of this has been included in the modern Rhine "straightening"--which is now causing all sorts of damaging flooding issues.

Nice documentary about wildlife. Interesting to watch.
