Overview

Welcome to the Moselle to Mozart tour, a taste of some of the best cycling Germany and Austria has to offer! One of our more sedate tours, this fantastic adventure begins in an area just north of Trier in lush vineyard country. From here we follow the gorgeous Moselle River with its beautifully preserved historical villages, all the way to the strategically important city of Koblenz. Here the Moselle and Rhine rivers meet and we then follow the ‘Romantic Rhine’ south passing the famous university city of Heidelberg and the River Neckar. We push on away from the rivers for a short spell and head inland to a hillier middle section of the tour. This provides some variation and challenge through the Jagst valley as we cycle across to the fairy tale city of Rothenburg ob der Tauber where we have a rest day to explore. Continuing through the picturesque Altmuhl region to Regensburg we meet the impressive Danube and follow this most splendid river into Austria along some of Europe’s finest cycle trails. We will pass through many attractive Austrian towns and villages as we continue along the Danube to the stately city of Vienna where we will finish our tour.
