Bernkastel Old Town Square

Very nice old town. Even a bicycle cellar is available free of charge. Wheelchairs lockers 👍The place is overflowing. Also Kues is worth a detour. Here start many Mosel ships.

Those who make it to the sundial, will be rewarded with a great view of the Moselle. But beware, some way suddenly turns out to be a dead end and you have to turn around again.

May 29, 2025,Moselradweg 1.Etappe

I left home by car at 5:30 a.m.
In Trier, there's a free P+R parking lot, right next to the bike path.
The first 10.12 km aren't that great, partly through an industrial area.

Since it's Father's Day, there are also lots of handcart …

Highly recommended are the "Warsberger Weinhof" in Neumagen-Dhron and "Ti's Café" in Minheim. Two …
