Riding the Trains: Up the Rhine Valley
  • Tip Rating:
  • 'Mode': TO
    Category: Train
    Getting TO/AROUND: The wonderfully effecient German railway system (DB), to English eyes anyway, has Koblenz well connected to the rest of Germany.

    Lying, as it does, on the Rhine corridor, trains run along both sides of the river in both directions.

    Perhaps the most obvious day-trip from Koblenz is to the city of Cologne (Koln). Trains using the right-hand side of the river hugs the riverbank for most of the run, and provides some impressive views. The faster trains tend to use the line on the Left-hand side of Rhine, passing through Bonn.

    Frankfurt-Hahn to Koblenz: One for the cheapies
  • Tip Rating:
  • 'Mode': TO
    Category: Airplane
    Getting TO/AROUND: Despite the fact that there is a perfectly good airport located between Koblenz and Cologne, which has a direct rail link to the city most visitors will come to Koblenz via the airport at Frankfurt Hahn. There is a simple reasons for this : it is bloody cheap.

    Transport to and from the airport across perfect tank-driving country is provided by an effecient coach company (well would you expect anything less in Germany)

    Return journeys run from the central station in Koblenz

     sorry, I failed to have a drink with you in KA -- be sure to inform me whenever you visit the Hahn surroundings again -- Koblenz is just 30 km from my place

     It looks like a good place for Xmas shopping and other things. I have to agree, perfume does stink.
