View of Grevenburg Castle Ruins

Highlight • Viewpoint

Built around 1350 by Count Johann III, a son of the legendary Countess Loretta, it was the ancestral seat of the Counts of Sponheim until 1437. During the turmoil of war in the 17th and 18th centuries, the castle changed hands thirteen times. In 1734 it was conquered and destroyed by the French.

Steep Vineyards of the Moselle Valley

Highlight (Segment) • Natural

Steep-slope viticulture is a special form of viticulture characterized by extremely steep slopes that make it impossible to cultivate them with conventional tractors in line with the slope. These vineyards therefore require a high degree of manual labor and are often structured by dry-stone walls and terraces. Here you can see the rack-and-pinion monorails used to overcome extreme gradients in impassable terrain. Their tracks consist simply of square tubes resting on supports at certain intervals. They use various drive technologies and are capable of carrying loads of up to 250 kg.

This is exactly where you can see such vineyards in extreme locations. They practically cling to the mountain, every little spot is utilized – impressive.

Traben-Trarbach
The most beautiful meeting place on the Moselle
A meeting place full of flair and charm. Like a vine-lined amphitheater, forests and vineyards nestle around the town on both sides of the Moselle. A wealth of fascinating architecture, including architectural treasures from the Art Nouveau and Belle Epoque periods, make a vacation here a romantic experience on the Moselle.

Nice relaxing tour along the Moselle to wake up))

Today we went by bike to Traben-Trarbach. From there we walked to the town tour and up to the Grevenburg castle ruins. At the top there is a small, cozy restaurant (Griffins).
Unfortunately, we only saw later at home that there is the Franzosenstieg with a small spiral staircase and viewing platform at the back of the small parking lot. …

Today to Traben Trarbach leisurely and yet strenuous. Lovely along the Moselle.

The first round after arriving took us to Traben Trarbach in drizzle. Having arrived there dry, we wanted to take the hiking trail to the Grevenburg ruins. Not a good idea. 🙈 Too narrow and further back there are high steps. Everything kept pretty natural. Pushed back again and continued through the old town up the street to the castle. …
