Must See Towns/Villages Mosel Germany

[Coastal Cruiser.]

Hi. Anyone currently on the Mosel. We are heading there later today, hopefully find a wine festival. Although we have done this area twice now things do change. Heading from dusseldorf where would you recommend first. I'm thinking of callng into koblenz for tonight ?

We stayed here last October, there are a fair few vineyards in the are plus it’s a lovely little village.

That's great, unfortunately we only have a scooter and to be honest I may feel like a drink later (still at the garage getting the motorhome fixed) so I'm going to try the stellplatz next to the expensive campsite that's closer to koblenz. We do miss the push bikes but love our 300cc Scooter more or depending what time they are finished somewhere in-between dusseldorf and koblenz.

Is that the windscreen saga or something else?

I think it's the Lieser wine festival this weekend, just a few km west of Bernkasle-Kues.
It's a brilliant street festival with loads of bands playing, fireworks etc. We went a few years ago free parking in the country park by the river.
Best wine festival we have ever been to.

Looks like we will be somewhere mid Mosel tomorrow

Weather is looking a bit iffy for a couple of days but we will find a bar to pass the time if required
Other beverages are available.

Whereabouts has your handle snapped as I carry with us bits and bobs that might make it usable until you get home.
We are at Minheim for a couple of days.

Two on Tour Thank you very much for the offer.
I have made a temporary fix that will do if I can't get a replacement .

We will be in that region in September, does anyone have a link to when the wine party's are on if they are on in September.

Anyone staying in Mosel region & looking for a wine festival, there's one in Neumagen Drohn this weekend. Weingut Shneider-Kettern have some decent wines at good prices. There is a great Stellplaz in the village at the marina. Pricey at €20 with leccie & wifi but you get a pitch you can put out awning tables & chairs & right next to river. We stayed a couple of nights & really enjoyed the location. Walking distance to a few cafes & restaurants, supermarket, bus stop & boat stopping point to Bergkastel.

Does anyone know if there is a bus service between the villages of the Mosel please

Made it to Burgen on the Mosel
Failed getting a new awning handle but repair will do fine.
Weather forecast a bit iffy tomorrow and whatever the next day is may as well sit here with the feet up for a day or two.

We are on the stellplatz attached to the campsite in Koblenz. We got the best pitch.

Ah OK, I wondered.

 

[Garfields]

I was looking back at some old posts from 2017 / 18.
We always end up on the Mosel at some point for a day or two.
I plan to head off Sunday as I want to do the tec museums
I may well stop off again somewhere later on this trip.

Are there spaces or is it rammed. Official parking or shhhh parking

 

[Two on Tour]

Looks like a blind eye turned as they are expecting you to spend money on booze and food.
It has been and is pissing it down, but the grass doesn't seem to bad to park on.

Just got back from a nose about and it's not much to write home about at present, hopefully it picks up on Saturday and Sunday or Lenny and crazylegs have got something to answer for.

If you want a jumping wine fest check out Bad Durkheim

Just came from Saarburg and are now at the marina Stellplatz in Neumagen-dhron on the Mosel.
nice site with a small village that has loads of places selling wine and food
There is also a ferry to take you along the river.

At Konz on Mosel
Good run up from Neckargemund
Had a couple of cracking thunderstorms since we arrived
Never had a moat around a pitch before
Forecast for next few days decent so will get some exploring done.
Some navigation errors today led to argument with a couple of bendy buses. in my defence it also involved a Dutch motorhomes and a builders lorry.

 

[Coastal Cruiser.]

Now at Zell and not very busy where we are parked up?
Strange as driving up this morning must have gone past dozens of sites all with loads of vans in.

 

[Gaston aires]

We left Traben-Trarbach yesterday (very busy), for Zeltingen Rachtig with several spaces until about lunchtime. Moving on again this morning for Graach, which is only a few minutes along the road.

We had torrential rains late yesterday afternoon, and it has rained off and on for most of the night. Brighter weather on the horizon hopefully.

Cheers,

Jock.

 

[JockandRita]

Today sees Rita and I, Mr porky Gareth & Phil, and garjanco Gary & Janet splitting up, as
Gareth & Phil head north for their ferry from Holland to the UK.

We met up at Ediger-Eller, and moved on together through to Traben Trarbach, Zeltingen Rachtig, Graach, and Bernkastel-Kues.

Here we are at a smashing Weingut in Graach.

Safe travels home Gareth & Phil, and thanks for your company over the last week.

Cheers,

Jock & Rita.
