Magical Moselle Wine Route
8 Day Cycling Holiday - Germany
Easy does it… Cycling the length of the splendid Moselle Valley, one of Germany’s most renowned wine-producing regions, is effortlessly simple. As the Moselle River snakes down through the valley, you’ll find delight around every bend: enchanting medieval towns, craggy castles and charming vineyards which cover the sunny slopes. Need to quench your thirst? Head for the rustic wine bars and tasting cellars serving excellent dry white Rieslings and Piesporters – they’ve been enjoyed in these parts since Roman times. Above all, the Moselle wine route offers a stress-free sojourn that’s ideal for cycling holiday beginners or anyone who craves the pleasure of a scenic landscape, with no hills to climb!
Highlights will include:
- Trier - Germany's oldest city - its roots go back to the Roman empire as you’ll see from the remains of Black Gate and the amphitheatre
- Bernkastel - the romantic cobblestone streets of this small pedestrianised town and its picturesque market square featuring half-timbered buildings with bright flowers bursting from window boxes
- Live like royalty during an overnight stay at Schloss Zell, a medieval castle in the quaint littletown of Zell
- Burg Eltz - regarded by many as Germany's finest medieval castle - a fairytale fortress of impenetrable walls, towers and turrets
- Sampling some of Germany’s finest wines, accompanied with traditional Zwiebelkuchen (savoury onion cake) – a unique gourmet treat
