 #5. Mosel River Valley

These are subjective choices and well no doubt hear some dissenting views, but we regard the Mosel as a quieter and prettier river than the more famous Rhine. We like the wine better, too.

Best Towns:

  •  Trier
  •  Bernkastel Kues
  •  Beilstein
  •  Cochem

Top Sights:

  • Miles of steep, terraced vineyards
  • Eltz Castle
  •  The castle at Cochem
  •  Porta Nigra 
  •  The Roman Baths and Amphitheatre.

Suggested Activity: 

  • Take a day or two to drive its length.
