Germany | Mosel Valley

Pedal Germany’s abundant wine-growing region from Trier to Coblence, exploring imperial cities, majestic castles, lush gardens and ancient Roman artifacts on this seven-day adventure following the gentle, meandering path of the Mosel River.
Wine villages, whimsical gardens and medieval wonders along the waters of the Mosel. Journey along the sparkling waters of the Mosel for a relaxing ride in Germany's abundant wine growing region. Flanked on each side by steep vineyard covered hills, our gentle riverside bicycle path leads to grand castles, lively market towns, and unpretentious wine villages. Discover Germany's fascinating Roman past, taste new wines, and marvel in serene pleasure at the Mosel's timeless charm.
Day 1: Trier

Roman statues line our route and point the way to the historic wine town, Neumagen.

Lodging zur Post
Description Set beautifully on the Mosel River in the far west of Germany, zur Post provides a good base from which to visit the nearby towns and villages. Enjoy elegant accommodations with modern facilities surrounded by vineyards and forests.
Day 4: Zeltingen
Start the day with a guided walking tour along Neumagen's old streets, accompanied by our entertaining local historian. Walk on the ancient Roman Road, discover countless artifacts and architectural treasures and enjoy a rare opportunity to tour the magnificent gardens that grace this area. After the walk, today's picturesque bike ride leads to historic Piesport and bustling Bernkastel. A more challenging side trip travels uphill for spectacular views of the valley and villages below. It's worth the climb! Tonight we'll have lovely riverside views from our hotel in the resort town Zeltingen. We’ll dine in style at our hotel’s gourmet resaurant tonight. (B, D)
