May 20, 2024,1. Tag Mosel: Trier – Wasserbillig und zurück
Today things turned out completely differently than planned. Instead of going from Trier to Wintrich, we went down the Moselle towards the German-Luxembourg border. The reason is the current flooding, which has completely flooded parts of the Moselle cycle path.

Towards Wasserbillig it was at least mostly passable, although it was quite muddy in places.
