- The Things We Didn’T Get to Do in The Moselle Valley
The Moselle Valley is a region in Eastern Luxembourg, North-Eastern France and South-Western Germany, so if you are crossing borders between these three countries and happen to do so through the Moselle Valley area, make sure you stop and explore! The area centres itself around the Moselle River and has jaw-dropping views no matter which way you tu...
As the Moselle Valley is such a large area of Luxembourg, you will need to decide which town to visit (it’s possible to do more than one in a day if you travel fast). We decided to visit Grevenmacher (after some very intricate decision making that revolved around the question “what town can we get the most free things from our Luxembourg Card?”) Yo...
Hire Bikes and Cycle Around the Vineyards
Using the Luxembourg Card, bike hire was free for up to 24 hours from a nearby campsite. The bikes were good quality and didn’t give me severe bum ache (I have been known to struggle walking after riding a bike before). We planned to do the Circular Walk of Nature and Wine Discoveryroute but found out after a very steep hill climb that bikes weren’t allowed on a certain part of the trail and therefore stuck to the lower levels of the vineyards and the river front. As it was such a hot day and...
Take Hundreds of Photos Along The River
With the sun shining, the river looked absolutely gorgeous and I couldn’t help but stop every few minutes to take a picture… or two… or three. I remember thinking the river area of the Moselle was beautiful on our train ride through Germany last year to reach Burg Eltz, so to be able to stop and enjoy the views properly (i.e. not on a train) was great!
Explore the Town Centre
On the hunt for lunch, we wandered into the town centre which is set back from the river and of course, as with the rest of Luxembourg,the buildings were gorgeous! The buildings throughout the entirety of Luxembourg were really stunning, a true mix of old and new styles and everything looked immaculate at all times. Luxembourg is a rich yet small country and this could be seen through the always prim and polished exteriors.
Take a Cruise on MS Princess Marie-Astrid
The Princess Marie-Astrid is a large boat on the river Moselle which offers a wide range of entertainment. From simply hopping on board to enjoy the scenery from the river, to entertaining themed nights and even a good old Sunday Lunch! The MS Princess Marie-Astrid is not open on Mondays, check here for timetables.
The Printing Museum
Also closed on a Monday (top tip – don’t visit Grevenmacher on a Monday!) is the Printing Museum which houses items dating from the 1930s used to make playing cards. Entry is free on the Luxembourg Card and the building looked small and worth a quick stop while you are passing by. Are you planning a trip to Luxembourg? If so, be sure to add a day trip to the Moselle Valley! Disclaimer: In light of full disclosure, we did receive our Luxembourg Cards for free on behalf of the Luxembourg Touris...

Mar 10, 2022 · Flowing from France and Luxembourg, the Moselle river winds through the hilly German state of Rhineland-Palatinate like a snake, carving these steep massive curves in the hillside to form the Mosel Valley. This picturesque region is renowned for white wine, especially its Riesling.
A tour of the area will take you along the flat banks of the broad Moselle (Musel) River, with a gentle slope of low hills rising on both sides -- the east bank is in Germany, where the river is known as the Mosel. For miles, these slopes are covered with vineyards. The riverbanks themselves are alive with campers, boaters, and anglers. Several ...
