Behind and through the mountains

Experience the Rhine and Ahr valley, the Eifel, the Kyll and the Moselle valley during a trip with "ups and downs".

1. day  Koblenz/Arrival

Everything is close by: the Deutsche Eck, the electors palace, the Old Town - off you go!

2. day  Koblenz - Bad Neuenahr/ Ahrweiler 57 km

A beautiful part along the Rhine and soon you come into the sun loved Ahr valley. Bad Neuenahr (spa gardens, gambling house) amd the medieval centre of Ahrweiler welcome you glamorously.

3. day  Bad Neuenahr/ Ahrweiler - Nürburg 44 km

The valley gets narrower. The bicycle path follows a former route through a tunnel past steep vineyards. And if your bike needs a break, get it on the public bus, which takes you up the height to Nürburg.

4. day  Nürburg - Gerolstein 51 km

Densely wooded hills, small villages of the Eifel, splendid views - here is the heart of the Eifel. Your way leads through ample fields to Gerolstein down into the Kyll valley.

5. day  Gerolstein - Bitburg 39 km

Beautiful Kyll landscape: extinct vulcanos, attractive side valleys, castles on the mountain and a baroque monastery are on your way through the forest Eifel.

6. day  Bitburg - Trier 54 km

Green hills and splendid views, sweeping descend on the new biking path in the narrow Kyll valley. En-route, some old mills invite for a gastronomical reward.

7. day  Trier - Bernkastel-Kues 64 km

A break in the old Fährturm, the Villa Rustica, the Römerweinschiff and the press facilities . Everything is nearly directly located at the Moselle bike way...

8. day  Bernkastel-Kues - Cochem 76 km

Narrow windings, sun blessed vineyards: the Kröver Nacktarsch grows here. Stroll through Enkirch, enjoy the trip on a Moselle boat. Don't miss out the pretty town of Beilstein or the Reichsburg castle high above Cochem.

9. day  Cochem - Koblenz 49 km

The lordly Eltz castle in a side valley attracts for a short trip. Much to early the day ends. When you see fortress Ehrenbreitstein on the mountain, the Moselle meets the Rhine.

10. day  Koblenz Departure

Unfortunately the sportive journey ends after breakfast. You have ideal connections by train in all directions.
