The Kühkopf-Knoblochsaue Nature Reserve is the largest nature reserve in Hesse. It extends across the districts of Riedstadt, Stockstadt and Biebesheim and, within the municipality of Riedstadt, includes parts of the Leeheim and Erfelden districts. The area offers the opportunity to explore a floodplain landscape that has otherwise almost completely disappeared along the Rhine. Around 60 km of hiking trails, which are also suitable for cyclists, provide access to the landscape.
