kelly58 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 We exit UK next week 1st overnight at Arques then possibly head towards Koln / Koblenz then down the Mosel towards Trier through Luxemburg back into France . We have done the Luxenburg / Trier / Koblenz before , but not the France / Koln /Koblenz bit , are there any attractions places of interest we should look out for along the route we should not miss ?.Many thanks for any feedback .

derekt Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Aachen is a very interesting town. Bonn is attractive too. We haven't stopped there recently so I don't know about campsites or Stellplatze. If you are looking for nice countryside rather than places to visit, the Eiffel SW of Koln is pretty and if you don't mind going a bit further east the Sauerland/Rothaargebirge area is very good for walking. On the return journey you might think of going via the Ardennes in Belgium. Han is a good centre for touring. Good grottoes there if you are interested in that sort of thing. We are heading roughly in the same direction in June/July but a bit further south to Nancy, the Vosges and Colmar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorrie Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Aachen has a very good Stellplatz. Easy walk into town from the site. We spent a couple of nights there 3years ago and may return this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ina Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 kelly58 - 2012-04-19 3:16 PM Now parked up on Stellplatz at Wintrich north of Trier on Mosel Valley 8e p-night inc wi-fi / elect We stayed there for 3 nights last May, an exellent Stellplatz, more like a campsite, we cycled into Piesport one day from there, and another day into Bernkastel, hope you've got your bikes with you as it is great cycling along there. Another stellplatz we stayed at last year was in Neef, again a really nice one, with nice views of the river. Enjoy the rest of your trip. Ina.
