Koblenz is surrounded by beautiful countryside. Particular highlights include the Rhine promenade and the Empress Augusta Park, which bring a touch of the Mediterranean in summer. The Blumenhof gardens near Deutsches Eck are a paradise for those who love to be surrounded by a riot of flowers.Rhine Parks
Following the Rhine upstream from Deutsches Eck (German Corner) to Oberwerth island, there are four kilometres of parkland, the Rhine Parks. With a number of cafés, this is a great place to while away the hours. In summer, the lawns are a firm favourite among sun worshippers.
