Maare-Mosel-Radweg

The former railway dam, over which large and small cyclists now cycle enthusiastically, runs along extensive meadow landscapes or wonderfully in the shade through the woods. You only brake at one of the countless picnic spots, for a short trip to playgrounds and places of interest in the immediate vicinity of the path or on marked special cycle routes that rejoin the cycle path. The Schalkenmehrener Maar, for example, one of the three maars near Daun, is only a stone's throw from the cycle path. The castles of Manderscheid, on the other hand, can be reached via one of the ring roads. The section between Daun and Gillenfeld is particularly geared towards smaller cyclists. Sometimes left, then right again of the river, the cycle path follows the valley of the Lieser to the Moselle with Bernkastel-Kues as its final destination. If you want to get back to Daun, either take on the challenge of a climb of about 400 meters or simply get on the Regio-Radler bus MaareMosel 300.

Characteristic

Flat, continuous asphalted route on a former railway line (Daun-Lieser) with gradients of 2.5 percent on average; occasionally on streets with little traffic, therefore very suitable for families with children / inline skaters.

Highlights

Two viaducts, four tunnels

Tip

you can return to the starting point with the MaareMosel bicycle bus , which runs between Daun, Wittlich and Bernkastel-Kues.
