"May 29 - June 1 Cochem"
Have you already booked a room? If not I'd check into that immediately. May 31 is "Happy Mosel" and that means maybe 50,000 to 70,000 people visiting the Mosel River for the auto-free bike and rollerblade fest, which shuts down the river road between Koblenz and Schweich for most of the day and severely impacts the availability of rooms for the whole weekend. There will be extra trains on Sunday to accommodate bikers and those whose cars will be useless.

I hope to break away while we are staying in Grindelwald to see the Jungfrau area. Would you suggest Visiting Wengen or other small towns in the BO?>
towns are not the joy of the Jungfrau - but taking aerial gondolas - the mountain trains like to the Jungfraujoch station, the highest in Europe and a Top of the World look at they call it - or to go to the Schilthorn and Piz Gloria or to do the famous and easy Ridge Walk from The Mannlichen to Klein Scheidegg - anyone can do this sweet famous walk - take a gondolas from Grindelwald to The Mannlichen (rave viewpoint for miles around) - walk to Kleine Scheidegg and hop the Jungfraujoch train from there perhaps.
Wengen and Murren are neat cities but the joy of the Jungfrau is on the walking trails and myriad of gondolas and mountain trains going off in all directions.
