Gita in bici di un giorno da Traben-Trarbach a Bernkastel-Kues

This scenic cycling route takes you from the lovely riverfront town of Traben-Trarbach to the charming medieval streets of Bernkastel-Kues. The ride is about 24 km long, mostly on smooth paved surfaces with gentle ups and downs (you’ll climb just over 130 meters in total, nothing too demanding).

You’ll be pedaling alongside the Moselle River for much of the way, enjoying vineyard views and peaceful stretches on quiet roads and dedicated paths. Traben-Trarbach is famous for its art nouveau architecture and historic wine cellars, so it’s worth a little explore before you set off. Bernkastel-Kues, at the other end, is a postcard-perfect destination, known for its half-timbered houses and vibrant wine culture.

Most of your time will be away from busy traffic—the route sticks to cycle paths and quiet roads, which makes it super relaxing. Pack a picnic or plan a café stop to soak in the river views, and don’t forget your camera for those Moselle valley panoramas!
