A day in Cochem on the Mosel: the Reichsburg castle, the riverfront promenade, the last-weekend-of-August wine festival, and what it actually costs — from the free guest-ticket train to a €5.60 latte.
Müden is a small wine village on the Mosel between Cochem and Koblenz — a quiet base for Burg Eltz and the Reichsburg. We stayed in a ground-floor apartment at a winery, with our own entrance, free parking and the river a short stroll away.
Eltz Castle is the fairytale castle hidden in the woods between the Moselle and the Rhine. Here's everything I learned visiting Burg Eltz with my family in August 2026 — what it costs, how to get there, and whether it's worth the trip.
Aachen is 45-60 minutes west of Cologne by train — the former capital of the Carolingian Empire and one of Germany's most historically significant cities. The Cathedral is extraordinary, and the city is genuinely undervisited.
