Rhine Bike Tours 

WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN CYCLING ALONG THE RHINE

The Rhine is one of Europe’s most iconic rivers, and much like the Danube it boasts some amazing cycling. The routes in this region follow the river as it gracefully meanders through vineyard-laced valleys. Along the way, experience beautiful villages and delicious Riesling wine that pairs perfectly with the local cuisine. The Rhine also has many tributaries, and the Moselle is one of its most well known thanks in part to the amazing scenery along its banks. 

When cycling along the Moselle, delight in the ancient towns and history all around you. Trier, argued to be Germany’s first city, even boasts Roman ruins that have been wonderfully preserved. Journey through the past when on a cycling holiday along the Rhine’s rivers.

Things to do along the Rhine

Delicious Riesling

Delicious Riesling

This region of Europe produces the most delicious, sweet wine: Riesling. Pairing perfectly with the salty local food, the marriage of flavours with every sip is wonderful. Along the Moselle River in the west of Germany, you can cycle past the cascading vineyards that produce this wine. Thanks to the microclimates that the Rhine and its tributaries make, there is plenty of wine production in the region. 

Historic Past

Historic Past

This region of Germany has some of the most fascinating history. Originally a border between the Roman world and Germanic, the ruins and old forts from this time are still standing today. Trier boasts the best example of this, with a breathtaking old gateway of the empire in the centre of the city. When you pedal along rivers like the Moselle, keep an eye out for all the history around you.
