October 15, 2021,Moselsteig Etappe 4 von Konz nach Trier

Hiked 4 stage and that will continue next year

May 30, 2023,Moselsteig Etappe 04 von Konz nach Trier

As expected, the fourth and last Moselsteig stage was one of the weaker sorts. From Konz you first cross the Moselle and then it goes through Zewen quite steeply up into the forest. Then it goes, with beautiful views, between Herresthal and the A64 along.

October 4, 2024,Moselsteig Etappe 4 Konz-Trier Porta Nigra

This was my fourth stage of the Moselsteig and I have to say that it was the one I liked the least so far. From the Café Mohrenkopf to the Mariensäule (which you should definitely visit) was the only section of the route that I remember fondly. From the Mariensäule I would skip the detour around the university next time; …

August 8, 2024,Von Konz nach Trier Moselsteig Etappe 4

So, that was the last tour of our holiday for now. But we've already made plans to continue the Moselsteig next year. We liked the 3rd stage the best... followed by the 1st at a short distance. Then the 4th. We felt like we had the path to ourselves. Hardly any other hikers... with the few places to stop for …

September 21, 2024,Moselsteig Etappe 4 Konz-Trier

Today is the fourth stage of the Moselsteig, well, such stretches are part of it. You see the Mosel exactly twice: in Konz at the start and then again in Trier. Otherwise there is a lot of asphalt, wide paths (forest highways) and very occasionally a little path. Conclusion: A hike that nobody needs, but that you simply have to …

September 11, 2024,De Moselsteig: Etappe 4: Van Konz naar Trier

Since today is my last day in the Mosel Valley for now, I decided to skip the remaining part of stage 3 and start stage 4. I wanted to visit Trier before I go home. It is a very beautiful old city with a lot of charm, definitely worth a visit.

June 2, 2023,3. Moselsteig - Von Konz nach Trier (Etappe 4)

We reached Konz by train from Trier in a very short time. The fourth stage of the Moselsteig Trail took us at the beginning of the tour over the Moselle and then, on the other bank, up to a wooded ridge.
