Trier by Bike - the alternative tour

Trier
2 hours

By bike, we are able to visit more places than on a walking tour. Further to the classical sites, we can arrive easily at destinations which are worth it, situated out of the city centre in a short time, for which on foot we would have to employ much more time to reach.

Jewelbox Luxemburg from Trier

Trier
8 hours

In the capital we visit the historical centre with the Grand duke´s palais, Cathedral and Rock "Bock" above the casemates with a splendid view! We will also look at the EU quarter Kirchberg and Plateau Bourbon. On our way back to Trier we travel through the rugged rocks of wild-romantic Müllertal and then see Echternach. An alternative would be Vianden with its majestic fairytale castle towering high above river Our.
