Moselle-Cycle Path for families
A little journey through time.
Arrival in Trier
Arrival at Trier and check-in at your accommodation. Travel documentation and rental bikes (if booked) are ready for you in the hotel. Treves is a town teeming with historic, Roman buildings and architecture. Whether it is the town’s landmark, Porta Nigra’ or the amphitheatre – it is definitely always worth a visit. Alternatively you can check out the toy museum and take part in the cool museum puzzlehunt.
Finally it is time for your cycling tour! You proceed on the left riverbank along easy cycle paths along the river Mosel, past Pfalzel onwards to Schweich. Here we recommend a detour to the adventure pool with its 52 metre long giant slide. Then you continue and cross over to the right side of the river and cycle along the ‚Roman Wine Route’ until the leisure lake ‚Triolago’, where you can enjoy the toboggan run, football-golf, a water ski cable car and many more. From there you proceed to Mehring, your first Day Finish.
Still pay a visit to the ruins of the Roman ‚Villa Rustica’. After that continue on the cycle path along the river Mosel via Detzem and Leiwen with their cool childrens’ playgrounds. You cycle past vineyards over to Neumagen-Dhron, the oldest wine-growing community in Germany. Here you may get lucky and spot the true to original Roman wine vessel gliding along on the river Mosel or maybe you might even decide to venture onboard and take part in a culture-trip? Once you arrive in Piesport you can visit the Roman wine pressing facility dating back to the 3rd century.
Today you cycle to Bernkastel-Kues, where the many small streets and the colourful half-timbered buildings are impressive. For parents we recommend a sample of the well-known “Bernkastler Doctor.
Numerous vineyards accompany you on your bike tour today. Through the wine-growing area “Kröver Nacktarsch” you reach your day’s destination with Traben-Trarbach. On the way, many leisure pools invite you to relax. Traben-Trarbach offers some architectural masterpieces of Art Nouveau and Belle Epoque. We have included a short round of miniature golf for your family.
In Enkirch, a jewel of Moselle’s half-timbered architecture, you should take a break. Through the wine-growing region “Zeller Schwarze Katz” you cycle to Bullay. Immersed in forests and vineyards, this place has lost none of the charm and authentic romance of an old wine village.
Early on you will arrive in Beilstein, widely known as the Rothenburg on the Moselle. From there you take the Mosel ship to Cochem. In Cochem you should plan enough time to visit the charming centre and the 11th century Reichsburg. Take the Cochem chairlift to the viewpoint Pinnerkreuz. Enjoy the view of the city and the Moselle!
