Schweich Marina and Ferry Tower

Highlight • Structure

The excursion to the boat harbor is worthwhile, especially in summer, as there are various water sports and leisure facilities. There is also a restaurant in the ferry tower of the port and a campsite right on the harbor.

July 30, 2025,Moselradweg von Longuich nach Trier ☀️🚴‍♀️🚴👍

In the footsteps of the Romans!
A beautiful bike ride along the Moselle to Trier!
A discovery tour through the imposing Porta Nigra to Trier Cathedral, through the old town to the palace gardens, and past the ruins of the Roman Imperial Baths!
👍🍀☀️😁

June 18, 2022,Moselradweg – Runde Trier - Schweich - Trier

Up the river in the direction of Schweich along the Moselle it is wonderful to drive, down the river there is unfortunately a lot of residential and industrial area. Access to the bridge in Schweich is behind the campsite, Komoot wrote to me there, so a bit of "sightseeing" between mobile homes, camping chairs and charcoal grills 😂

May 17, 2025,Von Trier zur Karlsmühle entlang der Mosel und den Weinbergen

Starting with a short tour of the old town with the Saturday market, it took us a while to get to the cycle path along the Moselle towards Schweich, as access roads were closed due to construction. This section from Trier is less scenic in parts, as it passes through industrial areas for a while. We stopped at the harbor …

August 20, 2022,29. Tour 22, nicht zu empfehlen, mehrere km Fahrt durch Industriegebiet, Moselradweg – Schöne Weinberghänge Runde von Riol

I can't recommend Stuck.
Several km through the industrial area of Trier and the Moselle crossing leads through the city.

Not so nice, a lot of driving through industrial areas and along main roads, but if you are in Trier and have the Moselle next to you, it's OK.

Garmin has once again displayed unrealistic altitude readings, this time only 600m; previously it was 1700m, interestingly always at Dietz Bakery...

October 5, 2022,2022-10-05 Ausflug Trier

Trier was on the agenda today. The paths were well signposted and almost entirely paved. Started around noon today, the sun was still a little long in coming. It finally got through in Trier and I was able to drive in a short-sleeved shirt. Almost all important (Roman) highlights were in the program.
