Vulkaneifel
The volcanism in the Eifel is 45 million years old and even today you can find signs of activity, especially at the Laacher See.
The best known volcanic forms of the West Eifel are the so-called Eifel maars, former craters that have been silted up or filled with water.
In total, more than 70 maar volcanoes have been counted here, but only twelve maars are still filled with water today.

Eltz Castle
The castle Eltz survived many wars unharmed. Thus its architecture and original furnishings from eight centuries have been preserved. Since its construction it has been owned and cared for by a single family and offers a treasure trove of world-class gold and silver work. The castle is located in a nature reserve of great scenic beauty and full of rare plants and animals. The dream path "Eltzer Burgpanorama" is particularly attractive for the hiking enthusiast.

Bernkastel-Kues
Berndkastel-Kues is the "International city of vine and wine". It offers the visitor a picturesque old town with romantic alleys and half-timbered houses. Inside are lovingly restored shops and stores and rustic wine cellars.
The most famous wine of the town is the "Berndkasteler Doctor".

Beilstein
The small romantic place is also affectionately called the "Sleeping Beauty of the Moselle". The history of the buildings and walls can be traced far beyond the 14th century. The small place existed for centuries of wine cultivation. Since this did not bring great prosperity to the inhabitants, hardly any changes could be made to the townscape. For this reason the guests today can be offered an original medieval ambience.

Cochem
Cochem is the smallest district town in Germany with about 5000 inhabitants. With the old town and the Reichsburg, it offers an arrangement of enchanting attraction for tourists from all over the world. Tourism with its facets determines the face of the alleys and squares. In addition, the most important authorities and offices of the Cochem-Zell region can be found here.

Bremmer Calmont
The landscape of this region is dominated by the steepest vineyards in Europe. The Moselle River forces its way past them in a loop, the so-called Moselle cramp. These natural conditions shape this impressive landscape. The Calmonter Klettersteig is a challenge for hikers with alpine climbing experience. But also the "normal" hiker will find exhilarating views of the river with the Moselle loop on the paths above the valley.

It is open from March to November and offers its passengers the possibility to ride in closed cabins even in bad weather and to admire the Moselle valley with the city of Cochem from a café. From the top station it is about 20 minutes walk to the Klotten Wildlife and Leisure Park.
