Alzey Hills

From a natural region perspective they are part of the Upper Rhine Plain and classed as major unit no.

The Alzey Hills, which belong to the northern part of the Upper Rhine Plain, lie in the east of the state of Rhineland-Palatinate within the counties of Alzey-Worms and Donnersbergkreis.

In many areas it is a cultural landscape used, particularly on the southern slopes of the hills, for viticulture and, especially in the south, for arable farming.

It is part of the foreland for the Palatine Uplands with sharper relief that the Rhenish Hesse Hills to the north.

The hills are bisected by the upper reaches of the Selz and the Seebach and the middle courses of the Pfrimm and the Eisbach.
