Note: Arrival by car necessary
After your arrival you can explore the home of the Zeller Schwarze Katz. You should arrive early so that you can fully enjoy the first day. In the tranquil little Moselle town, there are a few cafes and restaurants to linger or you can take a leisurely boat trip on the Moselle and let the Moselle valley pass by. In the evening a sociable wine tasting awaits you at the winemaker (alternatively a sparkling wine tasting - specify when booking). We wish you a nice first holiday evening.

Day 2 - Hike Moselsteig Trail
Side Jump Briedeler Schweiz
Hikers on the hiking path Briedeler Schweiz

Today's hike starts in Briedel. The circular hiking trail leads you through the forest to the Hindenburglay viewpoint. Uphill past beautiful slate cliffs you reach the highest point, here a detour to Beinter Kopf is recommended, a rest area with fantastic views over Zell and the remains of a Roman mountain sanctuary. From now on it's mostly downhill back to the starting point. In the evening, let your tired hiking legs relax in Germany's only Glauber's salt thermal bath, in the Bad Bertrich spa, 15 km away.

Day 3 - Hike Moselsteig Trail
Side Jump Rocks. Barrels. Half-Timbered.
View from the vineyards of Neef and St. Aldegund

The start and finish of the circular hiking trail is the wine-growing village of Sankt Aldegund, 8 km away. In the historic center, in the midst of romantic alleys and half-timbered houses, you begin the hike, which initially leads uphill to a forest recreation area. From here there are wonderful views of the Moselle valley. Another highlight is the terrace landscape with dry stone walls and interesting rock formations. You return to the starting point through one of the largest areas of wild boxwood. After the hike, we invite you to visit an old vaulted cellar with a wine museum and gourmet factory. As a memento of your Moselle vacation, you can take a small souvenir home with you.

Late afternoon
Own managed departure from Zell(Moselle)

Book the packed lunch right away. So you are well equipped during your hikes and independent of the few refreshments at the edge of the trail and their opening hours.

Additional nights Extensions
You can arrive earlier or extend your vacation afterwards. You can reserve additional nights as a pre- or post-night stay when booking your trip. Should you wish to stay one more night in a location during your trip, please let us know using the comment field of your booking or give us a call.

Bed tax Guest tax
We would like to point out that some cities levy a culture tax or bed tax. The fees will be collected directly at your accommodation.

List of accommodation
Specific accommodation names are not available prior to a fixed booking. The background to this is the possibility of daily arrival, which for us excludes the purchase of fixed room quotas. In addition, we work together with several accommodation partners per location – always matching the respective theme of the trip and the requirements of the individual booking.

Special food and accommodation
Necessary requests for special dietary or allergy-prone nutrition or physical limitations are communicated to our service partners with the fixed booking without obligation.

Short-term travel requests
Even short-term travel requests require a binding booking, as otherwise availabilities cannot be queried. If the trip is not possible due to a lack of availability, we will provide you with an alternative offer upon request. If you do not wish this, your booking will be canceled free of charge.

Invoice
A booking confirmation / invoice is issued to the travel applicant for each booking. If you are traveling as a group, but would like separate invoices, please make separate bookings, stating a group name. Subsequent splitting of processes and invoices is not technically possible.

Payment
The down payment is 30% of the travel price plus insurance premium (if travel insurance is also taken out) after receipt of the booking confirmation. The remaining payment is due four weeks before the start of the journey. For bookings less than 6 weeks before the start of the journey, the entire travel price is due immediately.

Travel documents
The travel applicant receives the travel documents and the service vouchers for all travel participants by post approx. 14 days before arrival - provided that the travel price has been paid in full. One set of travel documents is created for each room. This includes: a detailed day-to-day travel description, the hotel list with addresses and check-in information, maps with further tips for visiting and sightseeing, city and local maps, as well as recommendations for places to stop and an emergency contact list. In the case of short-term bookings and a foreign address, we will store the complete travel documents in your first hotel. You will receive the exact travel description including the hotel list in advance by email.

We recommend that you take out travel insurance including travel cancellation, interruption, rebooking fees and luggage insurance. You can find further information on this under the item "explanations" "Travel Insurance" on our homepage.
