View of the Moselle Bend at Piesport

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great view of Piesport and the Moselle loop.
There are two rest benches available, but unfortunately they are located directly on the country road.

From the Rothlay rock, known as the "Mosel-Loreley", you have a great view of the Moselle loop at individual points. Attention: It's going down steeply!

Moselloreley Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

A high-altitude rest area on the Moselle Loreley with a surprisingly sturdy railing. This is necessary, as the ground drops away steeply – almost without a bottom – immediately afterward.

October 8, 2023,Einfach nur Schön – Wunderschöne Moselaussicht mit Moselloreley

Fantastic hike, partly directly on the banks of the Moselle, through vineyards and nice places. The climb was quite strenuous due to the blazing sun. The view rewarded the effort.

September 29, 2024,Auf zur Moselloreley 🧜🥾

Today we were on the beautiful Mosel, or better still on the Moselloreley. On the way we met a journeyman from California who had gotten a little lost in the vineyards. He wanted to explore the Moselsteig but didn't have a proper map with him. We decided on the spur of the moment to invite him to accompany us on …

April 14, 2025,Wunderschöne Moselblicke zwischen Piesport und Minheim

Today we walked a section of the Römersteig trail and enjoyed magnificent views between Piesport and Minheim. The weather was fantastically warm, and we had a real summer feeling. We saw many animals, such as a red kite, some lizards, and a hummingbird hawk-moth. However, not everything was photographable with our phones.

I discovered this tour at @🥾🚴Rasche 🚴🥾 and - since the weather seemed ideal for it - I spontaneously invited my sister 😍 and off we went.

It was extremely windy, but the wind was pleasantly warm 🥵 (and it did snow yesterday 🥶❄️☃️)

July 6, 2024,Lieblicher Moselbogen

Our hiking tour takes us first from the "Karthäuserhof" along the Moselle cycle path downstream to over the bridge to Alt-Piesport. Then the path winds its way up the stairs through the vineyards to the "Moselpanorama" directly on the Eifelsteig. After a cup of coffee we continued on to the next highlight, the "Baumelbank". After feeling small as mice we …
