This was worth seeing but even on a cold December weekend there were crowds. It was a crisp clear…read moreday, yes. I had read that in the spring-fall it gets so bust all four parking areas fill up. I can't imagine! This was almost too busy for me. Unless you have something else going on in the area, I wouldn't make a special trip just to see the bridge, due to the crowding. It's not the experience I wanted to have in this scenic suspension bridge. I bet fall is stunning though.

Started off today, my birthday, hiking and coming to this bridge. So awesome. It was cold, windy…read moreand rainy but nonetheless very unique adventure. We had 5 kids total, four 2 year olds and a 6 year old. I'd personally prefer doing this alone or with older kids. A bit nerve wrecking with the younger ones. I do wish there wasn't an open space between the floor and chain link fence. It's not big but enough to cause a bit of worry if taking small children.

We did a Mosel wine tasting and the experience was exemplary! They have places right on the banks…read moreof the Mosel: Weingarten and Kellerei. Everything's very reasonably priced, lovely and attentive service and, the Kellerei Heronimi is very atmospheric...right in the old wine cellar! Great selection of Mosel wines at very reasonable prices!

We stayed at this lovely family run and operated hotel and restaurant. I am adding to my published…read morepost. This lovely accommodation is walking distance from the train station. If you arrive prior to check in they will hold your bags. At check in we were provided with the key and walked up 2 flight of stairs to our room. They did not have an elevator which was not a problem for us. Our room had two beds pushed together with fluffy pillows and a nice feather comforter. We had a balcony with 2 chairs and a small table. The bathroom was smartly decorated with all the necessary amenities, such as gel, shampoo and hair dryer. There was plenty of room to store luggage and closet space. Breakfast was outstanding. Each morning we were taken to our table which was very inviting. There was a basket with fresh rolls, cheese spread, and spreadable liverwurst. She had 2 stations which had an excellent selection of fresh coldcuts and wonderful smoked salmon. At the other station was a selection of fresh fruit, yougert, rolls, muffins and hard boiled eggs. This breakfast was plentiful but also very elegantly done. I look forward to staying here again.

We stopped by Gasthaus zum Onkel Willi on our way into Cochem.We didnt stay at the guesthouse, but…read morerather just ate ate their restaurant. We were starving and decided to stop in out of desperation, something which typically never leads to a good meal. But what a gem we found! Man, these guys are making some of the best wienerschnitzel I've ever had (and I've had quite a few in my day). They had this dish called wienerschnitzel "gypsy style", which absolutely rocked. You get a sizzling hot schnitz served with a truly eloquent hot pepper sauce, fried potatoes, dumplings, and salad. It was an amazing meal and the portions, in typical German style, were gigantic. Service was impeccable but it was a bit of a tough slog to communicate with their crew since they literally spoke zero English. No worries though, randomly pick something off the menu and enjoy!
