The best part about having a car is that you can go anywhere, anytime. Make full use of your newfound freedom by discovering all there is to do in Idar-Oberstein. It’s just 16 miles away. See the sights starting with German Gemstone Museum, Crag Church and Bosselstein Castle. The locals will also probably point you toward Cochem, 17 miles away. If you can only find time for one thing here, make sure it’s Reichsburg Cochem. (But we’re also huge fans of Wild- und Freizeitpark Klotten and Calmont Klettersteig.)
