Culture:
Trier, being 2000 years old, is the oldest city in Germany and the origin of the Romans. Roman and medieval royalty create the city’s image. You can discover the most important attractions with 2000 steps: Porta Nigra, the main market place, the cathedral with the forecourt and the Liebfrauenbasilika, Roman Konstantin basilica, palace garden with royal palace, emperor’s spas and the amphitheater. Throughout Trier you will find historic buildings with mosaic floors and ceilings. The Villa Borg has been excavated as a Roman property and remodeled: here you can experience Roman life. Excursions to the Saar and the Eifel region with its volcanic history are also very interesting and they can be discovered with athletic activities (hiking, cycling). If there is bad weather, you can visit the Rhine country, bishop or city museum; especially good for children is the toy museum – all f which are located in the old-city area in Trier.
Sport:
Biking paths are plentiful, the Mosel bike path, Saar bike path, Sauertal bike path and the Eifel-Maarer bike path can be reached from Trier. Hike through the Eifel and Hunsrück, along the Saar. You will have grandiose views on all of the vineyard paths. There are many idyllic sun bathing spaces on the shores of the Mosel.
