If you’re after a day-trip destination, we can help out. Situated 20 miles away, Cochem is worth hopping in the car for. Among your first stops here ought to be Reichsburg Cochem, Wild- und Freizeitpark Klotten and Calmont Klettersteig. The locals will also likely point you in the direction of Bacharach, 20 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, make sure it’s Stahleck Castle. (But we’re also huge fans of Reichenstein Castle and Pfalzgrafenstein Castle.)
