Hiking with wine and enjoyment - active on the Moselle with the themed hikes
These 3 themed walks are criminal, wine-filled and fun! The theater hike of the Nikolaus-von-Kues Gymnasium reenacts a murderous spa shadow, appropriately enough at the rehabilitation center on the Kueser Plateau.
The winery hike combines the best of two worlds: Hiking through the Ferienland region and fine wines from the Moselle. Hiking is also part of the culinary hike, but instead of wine, a complete menu is hiked here. Aperitif, starter, main course and dessert. Not only in Bernkastel-Kues, but also in other places in the vacation region and with various hosts.
