August 18, 2023,Pinnerkreuz – Schöner Blick Runde von Cochem (Mosel)
A really successful tour, the ascent is tough. But the view, the panorama is magnificent. What should be said is that people who are afraid of heights should consider the tour, some of which is very narrow with a direct view of the abyss and is not secured against falling. The descent is by no means better because narrow and …

An interesting castle, the interior of which is only accessible with a guided tour, and a beautiful little old town, although parts of it are quite crowded, as several river cruise ships also dock here.
The town loses some of its charm due to the many small shops selling all sorts of knick-knacks.

The rocky paths along the edge of the slope require a certain degree of surefootedness, but offer unforgettable views of the Moselle for long stretches. The view was simply magnificent, and …
