You can find up-to-date timetable information and prices atwww.bahn.de.

Parking facilities at the destination
Our partner hotels in Trier offer good parking facilities, sometimes even free of charge, for the entire duration of your cycle tour. There are always sufficient parking spaces available, advance reservation is not absolutely necessary.
You will receive detailed information on parking facilities at the hotel you have booked with your detailed travel documents two weeks before the start of your trip.

Condition of the cycle paths
The quality of the Moselle cycle path is excellent. There are practically no unpaved or poorly passable sections. The route runs almost exclusively on asphalted paths and is uniformly signposted from Trier to Koblenz. The traffic load along the Moselle varies, but between Trier and Cochem there is almost always a separate cycle path on the right or left side of the Moselle, away from the main road. Only on the last day of cycling is there a section on a wide cycle lane next to the main road.

Return transfer to the starting point of the tour
Every day you have the option of returning to Trier by transfer in a minibus (with bike transport trailer) at 09:00 (arrival there approx. 11:00). The driver comes to your hotel and has space for you, your luggage and, if necessary, your private bike. He will drive you back to your starting hotel and thus ensure a perfect return service without the hassle of changing trains or lugging suitcases. It is possible to bring your own bikes for an extra charge.

Train and bus in the Moselle valley
There is not always a train line running directly through the Moselle valley. After Trier, the train leaves the Moselle valley and the next train station is in Ürzig (near Zeltingen). From Bullay you have a train connection to Reil and Traben-Trabach. Shortly after Bullay, the railroad line disappears again in the Kaiser Wilhelm Tunnel and only reappears in Cochem. From Cochem, the line then runs completely through the Moselle valley to Koblenz.
In the period from 1.5. - 31.10. the cycle bus (line 333) runs daily between Trier and Bullay with a maximum capacity of 22 bicycles
