Mosel Radweg

The riverside cycle path through Mehring, part of one of Germany's great cycling routes

The Mosel Radweg (Mosel Cycle Path) runs 311 kilometres from Perl on the Luxembourg border to Koblenz on the Rhine, following the river almost continuously. The section through Mehring is a particularly easy and beautiful stretch — flat, paved, and lined with vineyards on the slopes above. Trier is about 25 kilometres upriver; Schweich is 8 kilometres downstream.

Bicycles can be rented in Trier and Schweich. Most cyclists doing the full route spend a night in this section; Mehring makes a quieter and cheaper alternative to the larger wine towns. The river path is shared with walkers and is pleasant in both directions.
