City in Germany
3 things to see
Koblenz sits where the Rhine and Moselle rivers meet, and the headland itself, the Deutsches Eck, is free to walk out to and a fine spot to watch the rivers join. The old town squares and riverside promenades cost nothing to wander, and local taverns pour affordable Rhine and Moselle wine. It works as a budget gateway to the Rhine Valley castle stretch, with easy train links downstream to Cologne and upstream to Mainz. Shoulder season is calmer and cheaper than the summer river-cruise crowds.
What to see
What each one costs, where the cost is known.
The "German Corner" marks the dramatic confluence of the Rhine and Moselle rivers, topped by a massive equestrian statue of Kaiser Wilhelm I. The entire headland is free to visit, and watching two rivers merge from the viewing platform is genuinely impressive.
One of Europe's largest preserved fortresses sits 118 meters above the Rhine opposite the Deutsches Eck. The fortress grounds offer free panoramic views across two river valleys.
The riverside promenade runs along the Rhine from the Deutsches Eck past wine taverns and garden restaurants. Walking the entire stretch is free and offers constant views of the fortress above and passing river cruise ships below.
