Walk the hiking trails along the Mosel

Hike in the glorious colourful Maifeld

Not far from the Mosel lies the Maifeld, a multifaceted, largely agricultural landscape. In springtime, wide fields of rapeseed and phacelia (scorpion weed) turn the Maifeld into a brilliant yellow and blue patchwork carpet. In summer and autumn the fields are golden with wheat and barley. Wide plateaus offer magnificent views over narrow side valleys. In one of these side valleys enthroned above the river Elz is “the” German medieval knight’s castle − Eltz Castle.
