Vinothon Shifts Routes to 2026: Event Delayed Instead
The Rheingau region of Wiesbaden is gearing up for an exciting season, with several notable events planned as part of the tourism strategy 2026+. One of the highlights is the postponement of the highly anticipated 1st Henkell Vinothon - Wiesbaden-Rheingau Gourmet Marathon, originally scheduled for 2025, to April 25, 2026 [1][2].
This unique "Genusslauf" (pleasure run) promises to offer wine tastings along the picturesque Rheingau route, starting with a sparkling Riesling and ending with a glass of champagne. The Vinothon will also feature a marathon and a half marathon, making it an appealing challenge for both casual and seasoned runners [1][2].
For those who have already registered, rest assured that your starting privilege for the new date is secure. Those who prefer to drop out will receive their starting fee back in full [1][2].
Meanwhile, the Rheingau Wine Week, the region's ten-day celebration of wine, gourmet food, music, and sociability, is set to take place from August 11 onwards. This year marks the 46th edition of the event, which offers a unique atmosphere and promises to delight all senses [3].
In addition to these events, a new gourmet magazine is set to be part of the tourism strategy 2026+, further enhancing the region's culinary offerings [4].
The Vinothon and the Rheingau Wine Week are just two examples of the region's commitment to providing enjoyable experiences for visitors. The Rheingau Wine Week takes place in the heart of the Rhine region, offering a perfect opportunity to explore the area's rich history and stunning landscapes [3].
Whether you're a wine connoisseur, a running enthusiast, or simply looking for a unique getaway, Wiesbaden's Rheingau region is worth a visit. Keep an eye on the events calendar for more updates and plan your trip today [1][2][3][4].
