Trier

Trier sits in the Moselle valley where rolling vineyards and forest rise steeply on both banks, making it a cyclist's playground for climbing. The Tour de Luxembourg and Rund um den Schaumberg draw riders into the surrounding Rhineland-Palatinate hills; expect sustained 6–8% grades through wine country, with elevations around 400–500m. Runners have the flat Moselle towpath for steady mileage, but the real character is in the hilly loops inland, where steep vineyard trails reward trail runners willing to climb.
