Cochem

[peter56]

So going to Cochem soon and aparently there is a wine festival on. Will be parking the bike up for our visit Have been looking at previous posts for tips. I am looking for advice please.
1. Is the evening cruise worth doing , because my understanding is there will be live music in town anyway
2. Want to do some scenic walks during the day . Is the cable car worth doing and can you walk back or is it too far
Any advice greatly appreciated

Last time me and Our Lass went over we hired E-bikes for a day. Brilliant way of getting around and seeing stuff. Have you been to Burg Eltz?

Did we not do an evening cruise on the ‘Disco boat’?

Or is that a one off thing during the other wine festival?

Prob a one off as the party boat stops at the lock and turns round. Usually the boats go through the lock to get to Beilstein.

We got ours from a place in Bruttig Fankel, a small village just outside of Cochem which was where we were staying. About 29 euros each for the whole day if I recall but there are hire shops all over, it’s a very popular way of getting around the Mosel Valley.

I’ve no idea of their range, but we rode all day and didn’t run them out.

Bike hire points along the cycle paths

Along the Mosel cycle paths alone there are around 100 hire and service points for touring bikes, e-bikes and pedelecs (which can be “refuelled” at recharging
