Eltz Castle (German: Burg Eltz) is a medieval castle nestled in the hills above the Moselle between Koblenz and Trier. The castle stands on a 70-metre-high (230 ft) rock spur that is bordered on three sides by the Elzbach River, a tributary on the north side of the Moselle. The surrounding Eltz Forest has been declared a nature reserve; parts of the castle can be visited in the summer months.

The green marshland island may not have a sandy beach, but it offers plenty of space for relaxation.

Hiking in the Bode Valley: through the Grand Canyon of the eastern Harz Mountains
The Bode Valley at the eastern foothills of the low mountain range is one of the most spectacular valleys in the Harz: rugged rock faces rise almost vertically up to 230 meters and push the Bode into a narrow river bed. In Treseburg (see photo) it becomes flatter and the valley slowly widens again, the Bode flows more calmly and offers opportunities for a refreshing swim in summer.
