June 20, 2026,Traben-Trarbach! 🌻

Traben‑Trarbach has been on my list for a long time. The mixture of striking Art Nouveau architecture and the surrounding vineyards exudes a very special charm.
As soon as I got off the train, the adventure had already begun. The ascent to the Grevenburg ruin is an absolute classic: it's a tough climb uphill, but at the top, a cozy …

July 5, 2023,07 Brückentor Traben-Trarbach – Schöner Blick Runde von Traben-Trarbach

Nice short round but two partly steep sections (one up and one down) each with about 300 meters in altitude. The first half in the forest with only a little view of the Moselle, in Starkenburg it is worth the short detour through the village to the castle of the same name, where Countess Loretta founded the Archbishop of Trier …

The beginning was strenuous, a short steep climb but then a beautiful view. Then a pleasant hike to the next castle and always a good view. The way back was on narrow paths, but easy to walk.

October 22, 2021,Auf dem Lorettaweg bei Traben-Trarbach

Today I hiked a beautiful tour on the Moselle, the so-called Lorettaweg near Traben-Trarbach. The hike leads steadily through the forest up to Starkenburg. There are still remains of the castle ruins and from the "Starkenburger Pavilion" you have a wonderful view. From there the path leads past fields and meadows to the Grevenburg ruins. Otherwise you can drink wonderful …

October 22, 2023,Von Starkenburg nach Traben und Trabach und zur Grevenburg

Today we went from the "Schönen Aussicht" in Starkenburg towards the Moselle 🌊 down to Traben Trabach. The path that leads through mixed forest 🌳 is not that steep at first, but it will become so. When we arrived in Trabach, we first crossed the bridge and looked around Traben, then back to Trabach and took the steep stairway to …
