	Germany - Upper Middle Rhine Valley

		The Middle Rhine Valley is an outstanding example of an evolving traditional way of life and means of communication in a narrow river valley.
		In his Rhine fairy tales, which he started to write in 1810, for the first time appears the motif of an unhappy blond woman sitting on a rock combing her hair.

	Natur, Aktiv, Erholung: Urlaub am Wasser - Deutschlands Flusslandschaften - Rhein und Nebenflüsse
		The mild climate in the Rhine plain, between the Vosges mountains and Alsace in France on the left side of the Rhine and the Black Forest on the opposite side, means that delicious fruit and excellent vines thrive particularly well and inspire outstanding culinary achievements in both food and drink.
		Both the "Baden Wine Road" and the "Rhine Veloroute" for cyclists, which leads you on both sides of the river from Basle to Mainz and Wiesbaden, are obvious choices to follow.
		You should also take time to move away from the banks of the river itself: the Rhine is more than just a river flowing between its two banks, it has made a very strong impression on its hinterland as well; the Black Forest and picturesque villages away from the riverside will demonstrate this to you.

	Danube River
		Since the Rhine as the only river rising in the Alps mountains flows north towards the North Sea, an invisible line divides large parts of southern Germany, which is sometimes referred to as the European Watershed[?].
		However, before the last Ice Age in the Pleistocene, the Rhine started at the southwestern tip of the Black Forest, while the waters from the Alps that today feed the Rhine were carried east by the so-called Urdonau (original Danube).
		After the Upper Rhine Valley[?] had descended, most waters from the Alps changed their direction and began feeding the Rhine.

	Rhine. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
		At Basel the Rhine becomes the Upper Rhine of the Germans and turns sharply N to Mainz across the broad-floored Rhine rift valley, a large graben, or down-faulted block, between the Black Forest and the Vosges Mts.
		A third distributary, known as the Crooked Rhine, leads to Utrecht and continues west to the sea as the Old Rhine; it is linked with Amsterdam by the Amsterdam-Rhine Canal and thence by the North Sea Canal to the North Sea.
		The Rhine was declared free to international navigation in 1868, and in 1919 navigation of the river between Basel and Krimpen, on the Lek, and Gorinchem, on the Waal, was placed under the authority of the Central Rhine Commission, with headquarters at Strasbourg.

	Helmut Beeger - The Nile
		It was impossible in the Upper Rhine to replicate the progress that had been achieved in the European context in the same sequence of steps.
		The negotiations, which up to 1990 were conducted in separate meetings for north and south and thereafter jointly as the Upper Rhine Conference, focused predominantly on topical questions in a regional context, with the emphasis initially on the subjects of regional planning, environment and transport.
		Cooperation on the Upper Rhine, particularly after the establishment of its own secretariat, may have become or presented itself as being very efficient, but it received little notice or acceptance from the population in the area.

	Landscape, Rhine Valley
		The Upper Rhine plain, a rift valley some 30-40 km/20-25 mi wide, is bounded on the east by the Black Forest, the Kraichgau and the Odenwald, on the west by the Vosges, the Haardt and the uplands of the northern Palatinate.
		Both of these areas lie within the western Mainz basin, which forms the northern termination of the trough-like depression of the Upper Rhine plain and, like it, was the result of a rift in Tertiary times.
		Shortly before the river enters the Lower Rhine plain it passes on the right an outlier of the Westerwald, the distinctively shaped Siebengebirge (Seven Hills), forming a striking landmark at the lower end of the Middle Rhine.

	Central location, mild climate
		The canton of Basel-Stadt lies on the Upper Rhine, in the triangle formed by neighbouring France to the west and Germany to the north.
		As it passes through Basel, the Rhine bends sharply northward and, beyond the Rhine bend, becomes much wider as it flows into the Upper Rhine Plain.
		Its position in the Rhine valley gives Basel an exceptionally mild climate, influenced as it is by Mediterranean air currents that flow up from the Rhone valley through the Belfort Gap.

	Restore Rhine
		An observer for the International Commission for the Protection of the Rhine (IKSR), formed by Germany, Switzerland, France, Luxembourg and the Netherlands, Wencker says the floods of 1993 and 1995 were catastrophic for the Netherlands.
		The flooding can be traced to the straightening of the upper Rhine, he said, which improves shipping conditions but also allows rising waters to flow downstream more rapidly.
		In the past few months, he added, the last free-flowing stretches of the upper Rhine have lost their protected status.

		Afterwards we will visit the nature reserve "Kühkopf", which is the largest and best preserved area of pristine floodplain landscape along the northern Upper Rhine holding a variety of habitats such as backwaters, alluvial forests and species-rich flood-meadows.
		North of the reserve a restoration project aiming at the re-establishment of species-rich flood-meadows on 46 ha of former arable land has been conducted during the past four years.

	Playing cards in the Upper Rhine region (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Documentary evidence suggests that card playing established itself in Italy in 1376, and then spread rapidly northwards across the Alps into the Upper Rhine regions of Germany and Switzerland and westwards into France and Spain, as suggested by the pink arrows on the above map.
		A major economic factor was the city of Basle, a significant commercial centre situated on the transit route between Italy and the Rhine valley.
		Factors facilitating the dissemination of card playing include the emergence of an urban mercantile class whose trading activities necessitated fast transport routes; the existence of cheap raw materials for printing in the form of paper; and finally the technique of reproducing the images by means of wood carving.

	PALEOSIS Region II: The Upper Rhine Graben System - Geological Setting
		As the Lower Rhine Graben (LGR), the Upper Rhine Graben (URG) is a branch of the Rhine graben system which belongs to the reactivated Cenozoic rift in western Europe.
		The interaction between the rift system and the compressive foreland of the Alps (Jura belt) and the direction of inherited tardi-hercynian structures make the tectonic regime of this domain more transtensive or transpressive than the LRG.
		Based on the main geological structures and Cenozoic subsidence data, the Upper Rhine graben can be divided into several tectonic units:
