Cochem, Germany

Bicycling the Moselle

Wind Your Way Along the River Through the Moselle Countryside Follow the meandering Moselle River past small villages, steep vineyards, sun-kissed slopes and lovely vistas. Unlike some larger European rivers, the Moselle is never in a hurry. It leisurely winds its way around the steep slopes of shale that have been home to viticulture since Roman times. Small vintners still produce the vast majority of Moselle wines, as tradition is usually deemed more precious than profit in this part of Germany. The flat paths along the riverbank are ideal for an invigorating ride by e-bike. Your local guides will assist you with any adjustments your bicycle needs and describe the route from Cochem to the quaint village of Beilstein before you begin. The landscapes along the river and picturesque Beilstein invite you to unwind and soak up the region’s natural beauty on this leisurely ride. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines. Total time walking or standing normally ranges from 1.5 to 3 hours.
