Rothenburg, Bacharach and the Rhine
20/Mar 2015
Tentative Schedule
Sunday April 26
Leave Munich and drive the Romantic Road (map) to Rothenburg ob der Tauber. Staying off the Autobahn, the trip is about 4 hours of driving. We should plan to arrive in time to check in to the hotel, get dinner and then take the Might Watchman’s Tour at 8 pm. Alternatively, we could eat afterwards.
We’re staying at Hotel-Gasthof Goldener Greifen (map). They have parking available and free loaner bikes for guests!
Monday April 27
Walk the town, visit sights, then drive to Bacharach, about three hours on the Autobahn. In Bacharach, we’re staying at the Hotel Kranenturm (map).
Tuesday April 28
Cruise the Rhine to Saint Goar and back–perhaps take the train one way. The ferry dock is across the street from the hotel, the schedule is here.
Wednesday April 29
Scenic drive along the Rhine and Moselle to Beilstein and Cochem. We’ll be sure to stop at Burg Eltz (map). We hope to catch up with family friend Mee’Sha.
Thursday April 30
Drive to Reutte.
