Why visit Koblenz?
Why visit Koblenz? At the famous Deutsches Eck, or German Corner, where the Rhine and Moselle converge, lies one of Germany's oldest and most beautiful cities: Koblenz. Vineyards, forests and four mountain ranges form the unique backdrop to this 2,000-year-old city.
Why should I visit the Rhine river?
The Rhine river shines with history and culture Thanks to the industrious (and warring) Middle Ages, the Rhine is also famous for its dozens of awe-inspiring castles, some left as picturesque ruins with museums to explore, others restored and transformed into luxurious hotels.
Which is more scenic Rhine or Danube?
While the Danube is a little more scenic than the Rhine, particularly along Austria's Wachau Valley, both rivers have relatively flat bike paths that stretch for miles. Wine lovers will also enjoy both itineraries.
Is Rhine Valley worth visiting?
There are lovely little restaurants and bars with views across the valley that add more to the experience than simply passing through for the day by boat. It is worth the time to see this gorgeous mix of nature and history.
