Understanding the winter weather plan U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden Public Affairs Office

Old man winter is here bringing with him a mix of snow and ice which can be both an inconvenience and a hazard. Whether your daily commute is a few miles or a few steps from your home, the U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden Safety Office reminds individuals to use caution when traveling in winter weather conditions as grounds maintenance crews work to make streets and pedestrian ways safe. “The U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden has a comprehensive snow removal and ice control plan which is prioritized first and foremost to sustain the mis-

sion,” said John Rice, safety and occupational health manager for USAG Wiesbaden. “Our priority is to ensure access control points and roads remain open and accessible; and to keep sidewalks, parking lots and steps to buildings clear and safe for walking.” Rice says it’s important the community understands the snow removal and ice control priorities so they can better prepare for safe travel or make a personal decision to not head out at all. When inclement weather strikes, the garrison’s Directorate of Public Works deploys three dedicated snow and ice removal control teams – one for airfield support and two dedicated to street and sidewalk clearance.

such as schools, the Commissary, the Main Exchange and general installation circulation are priority one, then sidewalks and parking lots. “DPW’s teams work as efficiently as possible beginning with the highest priority routes; however, during extreme or unpredictable weather events community safety is a shared responsibility,” said Eddie Johnson, director, DPW. Efforts will be made to have all roads and streets cleared before the start of normal duty hours; however, “every weather situation is unique to include when conditions change and the severity,” said Johnson.

By Herald Union staff Two types of passports are important for DOD personnel and families stationed in Germany: the no-fee passport — distinguishing DOD civilians and commandsponsored family members as official government travelers — and the regular-fee tourist passport. In general, these international documents are used to verify citizenship, as primary photo identification and to entitle travelers to the protection of their country’s laws while traveling on foreign soil. Passport control officers use passports to determine whether or not foreign nationals can enter the country. But depending on the nature of travel, using one passport in place of the other could lead to major delays, fines or detainment at another country’s borders, accordSee ‘Passports’ on page 5

Soldiers administer the "standing long jump" portion of the Occupational Physical Assessment Test to potential recruits during an OPAT pilot program.

Army implements new fitness standards for recruits and MOS transfers By David Vergun Army.mil

WASHINGTON — In January, the Army began administering the Occupational Physical Assessment Test, or OPAT, to all recruits to assess their fitness for military occupational specialties. The OPAT also will be used to assess some Soldiers who are reclassifying into a different MOS. Army Recruiting Command estimates that the OPATwill be administered to about 80,000 recruits and thousands of cadets annually. Soldiers moving into more physically demanding MOSs also will have to meet the OPAT standard, said Jim Bragg, retention and reclassification branch chief for Army Human Resources Command. Under the OPAT, there are four physical demand categories, Bragg explained. — Heavy (black) — Significant (gray) — Moderate (gold) — Unqualified (white) When a Soldier wishes to reclassify to a new MOS, from the significant category to the heavy category, for example, he or she will need to take the OPAT. However, a Soldier whose new MOS falls within the same or a lower level physical demand category will not need to take the OPAT. The Soldier's commander will be responsible for ensuring the OPAT is

administered prior to approval of a reclassification, Bragg said. As with any reclassification action, the battalion-level or brigade-level career counselor will administer the OPAT. When it comes to recruiting, Brian Sutton, a spokesman for Army Recruiting Command, said the OPAT is not meant to turn away or weed people out. “It is designed to put the right people in the right jobs and to ensure we keep our recruits safe while doing so,” he said. OPAT scoring is gender neutral, he added.All Soldiers, male and female, must pass the same physical standards for their desired career field. The test will be administered to everyone coming into the Army: officer, enlisted, active, Reserve and Guard, he said. It will be administered by any command responsible for Soldier assessions — including Recruiting Command and Army Cadet Command — after the Soldier swears in but before he or she begins training.

Four tests of OPAT

OPAT measures muscular strength, muscular endurance, cardiorespiratory endurance, explosive power and speed. It consists of four individual tests: — The “standing long jump,” is designed to assess lower-body power. Participants stand behind a takeoff line

with their feet parallel and shoulder-width apart. They jump as far as possible. — The “seated power throw,” is designed to assess upper-body power. Participants sit on the floor with their lower back against a yoga block and upper back against a wall. They hold a 4.4 pound (2 kilogram) medicine ball with both hands, bring the medicine ball to their chest and then push or throw the medicine ball upwards and outwards at an approximate 45 degree angle. The throw is scored from the wall to the nearest 10 centimeters from where the ball first contacts the ground. — The “strength deadlift,” is designed to assess lower-body strength. Participants stand inside a hex-bar and perform practice lifts to ensure good technique. They then begin a sequence of lifts starting with 120 pounds, working up to 220 pounds. — The “interval aerobic run,” always performed last, is designed to assess aerobic capacity. The evaluation involves running “shuttles” or laps between two designated points that are spaced 20 meters apart. The running pace is synchronized with “beeps,” produced by a loud speaker, at specific intervals. As the test progresses, the time between beeps gets shorter, requiring recruits to run faster in order to complete the shuttle. Participants are scored by the level they reach and the number of shuttles they complete.

Here is a quick breakdown of the four physical demand categories incorporated into the OPAT: — “Black” is for MOSs with heavy physical demands, like those of the combat arms branches, that require lifting or moving 99 pounds or more. To attain black on the OPAT, the recruit or Soldier would need to achieve a minimum of 5 feet, 3 inches in the standing long jump; 14 feet, 9 inches for the seated power throw; 160 pounds for the strength deadlift; and a 10:14 minute mile over the course of 43 shuttles. — “Gray” is for MOSs with signiﬁcant physical demands that require frequent or constant lifting of 41 to 99 pounds and occasional tasks involving moving up to 100 pounds. To attain gray on the OPAT, the recruit or Soldier would need to achieve a minimum of 4 feet, 7 inches in the standing long jump; 13 feet, 1 inch for the seated power throw; 140 pounds for the strength deadlift; and a 10:20 minute mile over the course of 40 shuttles. — “Gold” is for MOSs with moderate physical demands, such as cyber, that require frequent or constant lifting of weights up to 40 pounds or when all physical demands are occasional. To attain gold on the OPAT, the recruit or Soldier would need to achieve a minimum, 3 feet, 11 inches in the standing long jump; 11 feet, 6 inches for the seated power throw; 120 pounds for the strength deadlift; and, a 10:27 minute mile over the course of 36 shuttles. — “White” is unqualiﬁed. Arecruit or Soldier who attains white has failed to meet OPAT's minimum standards. Sutton noted that if a recruit fails the OPAT, he or she can request to retake the test. If the recruit cannot eventually pass the OPAT color designator for his or her MOS, it could be possible to renegotiate the contract that would allow the recruit to go into an MOS with a lower physical demand OPAT category, the minimum being Gold.

Filing taxes early? Your refund may not arrive early By Katie Lange

Defense Media Activity

Many taxpayers plan their holiday shopping and other purchases around getting their tax refunds from the Internal Revenue Service at the earliest possible date. But in 2017, refunds may take longer to reach some taxpayers than in previous years. The Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes (PATH) Act, signed into law in December 2015, requires the IRS to hold tax refunds for people claiming Earned

www.wiesbaden.army.mil

Income Tax Credit and Additional Child Tax Credit until at least Feb. 15, 2017. Also, new identity theft and refund fraud safeguards by both the IRS and individual states mean some tax returns and refunds may face additional review. Beginning in 2017, the IRS must hold the entire refund, even the portion not associated with the EITC and ACTC. The IRS said the change helps ensure taxpayers get the refund they are owed by giving the agency more time to help detect and prevent fraud.

“This is an important change, as some of these taxpayers are used to getting an early refund,” said IRS Commissioner John Koskinen. “We want people to be aware of the change for their planning purposes during the holidays. We don’t want anyone caught by surprise if they get their refund a few weeks later than in previous years.” As in past years, the IRS will begin accepting and processing tax returns once the filing season begins. All taxpayers should file as usual, and tax return

preparers should submit returns as they normally do. Although the IRS cannot issue refunds for some early filers until at least Feb. 15, the agency reminds taxpayers that most refunds will be issued within the normal timeframe: less than 21 days after being accepted for processing by the IRS. The “Where’s My Refund?” tool on IRS.gov and the IRS2Go phone app remain the best ways to check the status of a refund.

Sidewalk and paths • • • •

Walk like a penguin and shuffle your feet along the surface. Keep 3-points of contact when getting in and out of a vehicle.

Roads

Know your road conditions. When driving a vehicle, Green, Amber, Red and Black are used to determine road conditions on U.S. Army installations. Drivers should always take into account their individual driving experience before heading out. GREEN: Ideal road conditions exist. Drivers will observe normal precautions and speed limits. AMBER: Packed snow or slush with a depth less than four inches or ice accumulation exists. Plan for increased driving times, hazardous road conditions. Driver experience will be considered in dispatching vehicles under Amber conditions. RED: Only mission-essential and emergency-essential vehicle dispatches are authorized.

ing to travel experts. As a general rule, the U.S. Department of State and DOD warn that passport officers will deny — or, at the very least, delay — visitors attempting to enter with passports that do not reflect the true intent of travel. The U.S. Army reported in a 2009 news release that many countries, including France, Great Britain, Egypt and many African states, will not accept no-fee passports for leisure and personal trips.

“No-Fee” Passport

Also known as the no-fee or special issuance passport, official passports are issued by specialized passport offices, such as those on military installations. Official passports allow eligible individuals to receive the document free of charge. They are issued — with necessary visas — to personnel traveling in an official government capacity to a foreign country and are valid for five years. The average time for processing official passports is approximately eight to 10 weeks. Who needs it? All U.S. citizens must have a nofee passport for overseas permanent changes of station, temporary duty assignments and missions. Each U.S. citizen accompanying the sponsor and listed on official orders — even infants — must have a no-fee passport. Servicemembers are only issued official

Official, or no-fee, passports are issued to personnel traveling in an official government capacity to a foreign country. Tourist passports are required for international, personal or private business travel. passports for missions to countries that do not accept orders as an authorized travel document. Why? No-fee passports for German relocation have a Status of Forces Agreement, or SOFA, card. SOFA cards exempt eligible DOD personnel from Germany’s 90-day visa limit and ensure they benefit from U.S. Customs subsidies. When do I use it? No-fee passports are for “discharge of official duty” only, according to the State Department. No-fee passports can also be used for travel to, from and within the United States and as a supporting or secondary form of identification during international travel. When do I need to apply? Since it can take up to 10 weeks to receive one, people should apply the moment they have orders listing the traveling family members. No-fee passports can be renewed seven to 12 months before they expire. Applicants must submit paperwork to the USAG Wiesbaden Passport Office. The U.S. Embassy and Consulates in Germany are not authorized to accept

passport applications of any type from I.D. card holders.

Tourist Passport

Tourist passports are required for international leisure, private business and personal travel. They act as proof of citizenship and establish travel status through visa stamps. Adult tourist passports are valid for 10 years. Tourist passports for minors, or anyone under 16, are valid for five years. Who needs it? Any person — regardless of citizenship — with plans for a personal trip across a border must have a tourist passport. When do I use it? DOD personnel stationed in Germany must use a tourist passport to enter and exit countries outside Germany or the U.S. for personal travel. A family stationed in Germany and vacationing in Italy, for example, would use their tourist passports at the Italian border upon entering and exiting and their nofee passports to reenter Germany. The State Department and DOD recommend

traveling with both documents. How much does it cost? Adult tourist passports cost $135 for an initial issuance and $110 for a renewal passport. Tourist passports for minors, or anyone below 16 years old, cost $105. The Passport Office also helps with Consular Reports of Birth Abroad, which costs $100, and issuing newborn passports. In accordance with the State Department, the Passport Office only accepts cashier’s checks and money orders, which can be obtained from an on-post bank or post office. When do I need to apply? The typical turn around for tourist passports is 4 to 6 weeks. The renewal period for the tourist should be 12 to nine months prior to expiration as some countries require at least 6 months validity on a passport to travel with it. Scheduling the Appointment Soldiers, DOD civilians and family members can schedule a passport appointment at the Passport Office through the garrison website at www. wiesbaden.army.mil/passports or visit during walk-in hours.

News and features 3ABCT kicks off Europe arrival with seaport operations Story and photos by Capt. Scott Walters 3rd ABCT, 4th ID

BREMERHAVEN, Germany — The first Soldiers from 3rd Armored Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division arrived in Europe Jan. 5, and they hit the ground running a day later by assisting with the initial offloading of the heavy brigade's equipment from boats in this German port city on the North Sea. A “torch party” of about 250 Soldiers from across the 3rd Brigade's seven battalions landed in Hamburg, Germany, after departing their home station of Fort Carson in Colorado Springs, Colorado. They are the first of about 4,000 Soldiers from the Iron Brigade to kick off continuous nine-month rotations of ABCTs to central and Eastern Europe in support of U.S. Army Europe's Operation Atlantic Resolve. The first order of business is moving the 3rd Brigade's approximately 2,800 pieces of equipment — including tanks, Bradley fighting vehicles and Paladin self-propelled howitzers — off of three supercargo ships and on to Poland, where the ABCT will initially organize before disbursing its battalions to eight countries ranging from the Baltic to the Black seas. It's a logistical endeavor spearheaded by USAREUR's 21st Theater Sustainment Command that will move by rail, line haul and military convoys, with the Iron Brigade initially serving in a support role. “Right now we're helping fix any vehicles or identify maintenance issues and make fixes where we can as our equipment rolls off the ships,” said Sgt. Michael Sansaver, a tank mechanic with Troop D, 4th Squadron, 10th Cavalry Regiment, 3rd ABCT.

Before dawn had broken over the icy port, Sansaver was climbing onto an M88 recovery vehicle to check what port workers thought might be tight steering, an issue simply caused by the cold weather. It was just one example of spot checks he and other Iron Brigade mechanics performed on tracked vehicles once they rolled off the supercargo ship Resolve. “The 4-10 Squadron is working the mission command piece for the brigade here at the port of Bremerhaven, helping 21st Theater Sustainment Command manage the flow of our equipment into the European theater,” said Maj. Travis Tallman, the squadron's executive officer. “We're attempting to identify any vehicles that have malfunctions or issues, so once they reach their final destination there are no surprises and we're ready to go to work as soon as everything arrives in Poland.” Maj. Joshua Smith, 3rd Brigade's support operations officer with 64th Brigade Support Battalion, has overseen the movement of the complete set of armored equipment from Colorado and ultimately to Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Bulgaria and Germany. “It's an endeavor we haven't done in a while as an Army, moving this much equipment into an established theater,” Smith said. “It's definitely going well. So far there are no hiccups. We were able to move our equipment from Fort Carson ahead of schedule and all of the sea vessels have arrived on time. We could not do something like this by ourselves; this is a team effort across all levels of the Army to get this done,” he said. “We're ready to go! It's exciting and monumental to do a theater-opening process here in Europe, and we're collectively figuring out the best way to do things to help the next ABCT rotation.”

Commissaries debut nutrition guide By Rick Brink

DeCA Public Affairs

FORT LEE, Va. — Just in time for those whose New Year’s resolution is to be more fit and watch what they eat, commissaries worldwide will debut their new nutrition guide program in January. The program catch phrase, “Dietitian Approved! We Did the Work for You!” aptly describes it. Through color-coded shelf tags, customers will find it easy to spot products featuring one or more of five popular nutritional attributes such as low sodium, no-added sugar and high fiber. The labels also highlight organic products. “Military service is all about readiness and resilience, and the foods we eat play a big role in that,” said Defense Commissary Agency Director and CEO Joseph H. Jeu. “By highlighting the products with key nutrient attributes our commissary patrons look for, our nutrition guide program makes shopping much more convenient and effec-

tive to help service members and their families meet their health and wellness needs.” The NGP is based on U.S. Food and Drug Administration and U.S. Department of Agriculture criteria and standards, which are widely recognized and trusted, according to Deborah Harris, the DeCA dietitian. All NGP shelf labels for manufactured products are based on the food manufacturer’s product labeling, to include the Nutrition Facts Panel and ingredients list. Some NGP labels will have a “Thumbs Up” icon, which means

the products align closely with the green category (high nutrition quality/high performance foods) of DOD’s Go for Green program, Harris said. DeCA collaborated with key DOD agency and service branch health and wellness experts to align NGP with the Go for Green nutrition education program, which uses traffic light colors to identify food choices in military dining facilities. “Customers will find more than 600 ‘Thumbs Up’ items just in the center of our stores, where you find the unrefrigerated packaged and canned goods,” Harris said. More detailed information about the program, including the color code guide and frequently asked questions, are on the commissary website at https://commissaries.com/healthyliving/nutrition-guide.cfm. “Part of our brand promise is, ‘We’re More,’ and offering this level of service that makes shopping more convenient is a great way to start off the New Year,” Jeu said.

WAHC helps units improve and maintain medical readiness By Wiesbaden Army Health Clinic The Soldier Medical Readiness Clinic at the Wiesbaden Army Health Clinic wants to help units improve and sustain the Medical Readiness of their Soldiers. “Readiness is one of the number one priorities of the Chief of Staff of the Army,” said 1st Lt. William Vanlonkhuyzen, officer in charge of the SMRC. “We understand that medical readiness is a key component to unit readiness.” There are approximately 165,000 Soldiers in the Army who are non-deployable due to medical reasons. Of the non-deployable, more than eight percent are classified as Medical Readiness Classification (MRC) 4, and only need a periodic health assessment, a dental exam, or both to meet the annual requirements. The Army wants to reduce the number of Soldiers classified as MRC4 to below two percent by March 31, 2017 according to a Dec. 2, 2016 Department of the Army Execution Order. “As of January 2017, 4.8 percent of Soldiers in Wiesbaden fall into this category,” said Vanlonkhuyzen. To help meet the standard the clinic is increasing their outreach to units and Soldiers to explain the tools available to identify and manage medical readiness.

Tools for Soldiers

Soldiers can determine their medical readiness classiﬁcation and their deﬁciencies by logging in to AKO and viewing their status under the “My Medical Readiness” tab.

Tools for leadership

Last year the Army unveiled the Commander’s Portal for company commanders, ﬁrst sergeants, or their delegates. The portal is a tool that provides a view of the medical readiness of each Soldier in the command, and allows commanders to view proﬁles and project medical readiness for the unit in one to three month increments. The Army also unveiled the Senior Commander Portal for brigade and battalion commanders and command sergeants major. This portal aggregates the data for subordinate units so senior commanders can view the medical readiness of the brigade or battalion. “These two portals are both powerful tools that allow commanders to proactively identify and manage the medical readiness of their Soldiers. We encourage units to utilize these tools and to work with the SMRC to schedule Soldiers before they become MRC4,” said Vanlokhuyzen.

Scheduling periodic health assessments

Soldiers can call the SRMC at DSN 590-

1308 or stop by between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. to schedule PHAs. The SMRC, we will identify a Soldier’s screening deficiencies (Immunizations, HIV, vision, hearing...etc) and schedule an appointment to complete a PHA. Prior to the appointment Soldiers must complete the Member portion of the PHA (phase I).

To complete Phase I of your PHA: • • • •

Log In to AKO Select "My Medical Readiness" from the "Self Service" drop down menu Click on blue hyperlink for "Periodic Health Assessment" On the right side at the top of the page under “New Form” select the blue “Click Here” Hyper link

Soldiers deployed or TDY

If you’re not near the Wiesbaden Army Health Clinic you can update medical or dental readiness virtually by using the Virtual Integrated Patient Readiness & Remote (VIPRR) Care Clinic at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center from anywhere in the world. To complete your readiness or deployment health assessments through the VIPRR clinic contact them at DSN 590-8477 or 49-6371-94648477. Sailors, Marines and Airmen can also utilize the VIPRR clinic for service-speciﬁc readiness and deployment health needs.

January is cervical cancer awareness month By Cynthia Fernandez Wiesbaden Army Health Clinic

One of the many preventive medicine services closely monitored by the Wiesbaden Army Health Clinic is cervical cancer screenings. During the month of January, the clinic highlights this service to help raise awareness about one of the most common cancers affecting women. Cervical Cancer is a disease in which abnormal malignant (cancer) cells form in the female cervix. The cervix is the lower part of the uterus that opens into the vagina. Most often, it occurs in women age 40 or older. The sooner cervical cancer is found and treated, the greater the chances are that you will keep your ability to have children, and the better your chances for recovery. Cervical Cancer develops slowly over time. Long-lasting infections with certain types of human papillomavirus (HPV) cause many cases of cervical cancer. Vaccines that protect against infection with these types of HPV can greatly reduce risk. Having a Pap Smear test to check for abnormal cells in the

Herald Union

cervix or a test to check for HPV can help find cells that may become cervical cancer. These cells can be treated before cancer forms. Cervical cancer can usually be cured if it is found and treated in the early stages. Cervical cancer screenings by the WAHC are currently above the ninetieth percentile for women ages 21 to 64. A Pap Smear test is a screening test done during a pelvic exam that checks for abnormal changes in the thin layer of cells that cover the cervix or vagina. The test may also detect vaginal infections. A routine Pap Smear is recommended for women ages 21 to 64. It is recommended that Pap Smear testing should be done every three years for women ages 21 to 30 regardless of sexual activity. At age 30, women may switch to testing every five years if you get a Pap Smear test done plus HPV test. Women are encouraged to talk with their primary care providers to discuss which option best fits their health care needs. As a reminder, if there tests are done outside a Military Treatment Facility a copy of the report must be submitted to TRICARE

to be uploaded into your medical record. The clinic provides translation of patients’ medical reports from host nation provider. During cervical cancer awareness month the clinic reminds patients of their 40-minute Well Women Exams. Contact your PCM or any other provider in your assigned Primary Care TEAM to schedule a Well Women Exam today. Call the Central Appointment Line at 0637-194-64-5762 to schedule your next Pap Smear Test.

DAY T FR WIESB

Photos by Amy L. Bugala

The Cologne Cathedral, with its imposing towers, is hard to capture in one frame, unless you’re standing pretty far away. Guided tours are available in English. The public is invited to attend any Mass, devotion, choir performance or organ recital. The cathedral is also open for silent prayer. By Emily Jennings

U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden Public Affairs

tching to get out of town, but low on funds after the holidays? Or maybe you want to break in that new camera or get to know your area. Whatever the reason, a day trip may be just the ticket. Wiesbaden is centrally located within Germany, so you can easily see another city, state or country in a day and be back by nighttime. There are too many great cities and sights to list, but here are seven great trips to get you started.

1. Cologne (Köln)

Situated on the Rhine River, this 2,000-year-old city is perfect for picture taking, strolling or visiting a unique museum. At just 173 kilometers from Wiesbaden, if traffic is favorable, you can drive here in less than two hours — or better yet, take the train. The Cologne Cathedral (Dom) is one of the first things you’ll see if you arrive at the central station (Hauptbahnhof). You’ll want to have your camera ready. This High Gothic cathedral, for which the foundation was laid in 1248, is a stunning piece of history and architecture. The two towers were completed in the 1860s and 70s. The cathedral was damaged by more than 80 bombs during WWII, and after restoration was named a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1996. The Chocolate Museum (Schokoladen Museum), with its glass façade, is a perfect place to enjoy a view of the Rhine on a cold day while learning about the history and production of the sweet treat and even sampling some. If sweets are not your thing, stop by the Mustard Museum (Kölner Senfmuseum) nearby. Other sites to visit here include the Cologne Zoo; The Odysseum, The Botanical Gardens, the National Socialism Documentation Center; and the Koln Triangle.

2. Luxembourg

Got kids? A visit to Parc Merveilleux in Bettembourg, Luxembourg, will take up most of your day. The 212 kilometer drive takes about two-and-a-half hours. Wander through a fairy tale garden forest on a paved walkway (perfect for strollers, scooters and balance bikes) and discover unique play areas and zoo animals around every turn. You’ll see monkeys, crocodiles, rabbits, dingoes and peacocks, just to name a few. If you have any energy left after a day at the park, consider having dinner in Luxembourg City, just 14 kilometers away. Make time to visit the Luxembourg American Cemetery just outside the city and pay respects to the more than 5,000 Soldiers buried there, including Gen. George S. Patton.

3. Frankfurt

It would be a shame to live so close to this major German city and only see the airport! There is something for everyone in the city of Frankfurt and it will only take about 35 minutes to drive the 35 kilometers. If the weather is bad, you could spend the entire day in museums. Visit the former home of the famous German writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe at the Goethe House and the Goethe Museum right next door. If you have kids, they’ll enjoy seeing dinosaur bones at the Senckenberg Natural History Museum or have an interactive experience at the Kinder Museum, experimenting with printing and typesetting (in English). Other attractions include the Frankfurt Museum of Modern Art and The Old Opera House, and the red sandstone Gothic style St. Bartholomew’s Cathedral, which stands out in the city’s downtown area.

4. Hanau

During a quick trip to Hanau just east of Frankfurt you can see the 18th century baroque palace Scholss Philipsruhe and walk its expansive courtyard, on your way to pay

Jan. 19, 2017

a visit to the Brothers Grimm monument. At the Wilhelmsbad State Park and spa complex, you’ll enjoy lots of walking space and beautiful scenery, including a devils bridge and pyramid — the perfect place for a picnic. If you have time, visit the Fasanerie, the Hessen Doll Museum and the Prehistoric Museum.

4. Hanau

5. Heidelberg

The castle along the Neckar River in Heidelberg is the main attraction. Park in the city and walk to the castle or take the funicular railway, which goes even further than the castle for spectacular views. Heidelberg is 95 kilometers from Wiesbaden or about an hour’s drive.

6. Pedestrian suspension bridge

Wear comfortable shoes if you go to the Geierlay Suspension Bridge (Hängeseilbrücke) in Mörsdorf. It can be a mile walk just to get to the bridge, depending on where you park. But the view is worth it. Visitors can go both directions on the bridge or just one way and then return to their car on one of the marked trails. There is no cost to cross the bridge, but you may have to pay for parking. The bridge can get crowded on weekends and German holidays.

7. Strasbourg, France

This border city, the capital of the Alsace-Champagne-Ardenne-Lorraine region is 210 kilometers from Wiesbaden, or just under two and a half hours by car. But you won’t want to drive once you get there. Find a place to park your car and you’ll get the most of this city by exploring on foot or by using the ubiquitous light rail. Without spending any money, you can see the futuristic-looking central station (Gare de Strasbourg), the towering Notre Dame Cathedral, and take photos in the iconic La Petite France area, with its flower-lined river crossings and half-timber houses.

Frankfurt’s Römerberg is a picturesque town square in the old town. The east side of the square is lined with a row of six half-timbered houses, each with their own name, and the Old Nikolai Church (Alte Nikolaikirche), a Gothic church with a harmonic carillion with 47 bells that chimes every day at 9:05 a.m., 12:05 p.m. and 5:05 p.m. In the center of the square (not pictured) stands the Fountain of Justice. This square is a good place to start a walking tour of the city.

6. Geierlay suspension bridge

A view of the Old Bridge (Alte Brücke) spanning the Neckar River from the Heidleberg Castle. The banks of the river are a great location to admire the castle fireworks (Heidelberger Schlossbeleuchtung) which takes place three times a year. This year the illuimations are June 3, July 8 and September 2 at 10:15 p.m. Go to www.heidelberg-event.com for more information in English.

A visit to Germany’s longest pedestrian suspension bridge in Geierlay is a family and pocket-book friendly outing that can be enjoyed by all ages. The Hängeseilbrücke opened in October 2015 and is 360 meters long and 100 meters high, spanning the forested valley of a Moselle River tributary in the Hunsrück mountains. A visit to cross the bridge is free; however parking will cost €2. There is a 1.7 kilometer walk to the bridge from the visitor center (Kastellaun Straße 23, 56290 Mörsdorf) Strollers are possible on the walk, but are not recommended on the bridge.
