Other guidebooks

Bikeline publish a three-volume series of Radtourenbücher und Karte (cycle tour guidebooks with maps) in German covering the route from the source to Rotterdam but excluding the route around Bodensee’s northern shore (Stage 5), that through Karlsruhe (stages 12 and 13) and the long section across the Netherlands from Amerongen to Ablasserdam (stages 24–26). These include strip maps at 1:75,000 with volume 1 covering Andermatt to Basel, volume 2 Basel to Mainz and volume 3 Mainz to Rotterdam. A separate book describes the Bodensee Radweg.

Although neither a map nor guidebook, a topographic strip map of the Rhine from Bodensee to Rotterdam produced by Rahmelverlag (www.rahmel-verlag.de) gives a good overall impression of the route and makes an attractive souvenir. It is published in several languages, including English, and is sold in gift shops along the route, particularly in Rüdesheim and Boppard.
