Gita in bici di un giorno da Daun a Bernkastel-Kues

Ready for a scenic ride? This route takes you from the charming town of Daun, nestled in the heart of the volcanic Eifel region, to the picturesque wine town of Bernkastel-Kues on the Moselle River.

You’ll cover about 60 km, mostly on smooth, paved cycleways, making it an enjoyable trip for most riders. The journey has a nice downhill bias—after gently climbing up and over the green Eifel hills, you’ll enjoy a long descent toward the river valley. Expect peaceful countryside, forest stretches, and panoramic views that make you want to stop for every photo.

Daun is famous for its volcanic maars—pristine crater lakes perfect for a post-ride dip. At the end, Bernkastel-Kues welcomes you with its medieval timbered houses and world-class Riesling wines. Make time to stroll its old town or relax at one of the riverside cafés. This is one for your cycling memory book—enjoy the ride and don’t forget to sample the local pastries!
