travel description
Day 1
Own managed arrival to Bernkastel-Kues

Look forward to a relaxed hiking holiday with short stages and an unlimited Moselle valley experience. Bernkastel-Kues is the ideal starting point for hikes on the Middle Moselle. You should arrive early in order to have a close look at the fascinating half-timbered town. In the afternoon we invite you to coffee and handmade cake or ice cream.

Day 2 - Hike Moselsteig Trail
Bernkastel-Kues to Zeltingen-Rachtig

At the beginning you hike steadily uphill on this stage of the Moselsteig. From Bernkastel-Kues over the slope edges with fantastic views of the Moselle. After arriving in Zeltingen-Rachtig you can relax on the Zeltingen Markusplatz.

Day 3 - Hike Moselsteig Trail
Zeltingen-Rachtig to Kröv

Cross the Moselle bridge to get to the former Machern monastery. Now it goes up, you walk past the oldest sundial in the Moselle valley to the castle hill. From here you have a far-reaching view of the Wittlich Valley and the Hunsrück. The slate nature trail takes you to Kröv, where you spend the night.

Day 4 - Hike Moselsteig Trail
Kröv to Traben-Trarbach

Today's short hike first leads you to an idyllic mountain chapel with a fantastic view over the Moselle. Continuing on the Moselsteig you will reach the ruins of the former fortress of Mont Royal. The French Sun King Louis XIV had these built for a gigantic army of 12,000 men and 3,000 horses. When you arrive in the Art Nouveau town of Traben-Trarbach, we invite you to a winemaker's vinotheque. Get to know the fruity Moselle wines better during a wine tasting.

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.

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.
