A fruit that is deeply rooted in the region thrives along the Moselle: the Moselle vineyard peach. With its rich, red flesh and distinctive aroma, it delights locals and visitors alike.
The fruit, which originated in China, reached the Moselle via Persia as early as Roman times, where it was successfully cultivated. Today, around 10,000 vineyard peach trees grow here—most of them in the district of Cochem-Zell, along the picturesque river bends between Cochem and Reil.
The Moselle region offers a very special natural spectacle in spring when the vineyard peach trees are in bloom. From late March to early April, the bright pink blossoms transform the steep vineyard slopes into a colorful sea of flowers. This time of year attracts nature lovers, photographers, and hikers alike, who explore the slopes and admire the magnificent blossoms (read more).
