Your safety is our top priority. By preparing well and following the safety guidelines below, you’ll create the best conditions for a safe outdoor experience.
Make sure to stay well-hydrated
Bring plenty of drinking water with you and drink regularly. It can get very hot in the summer, especially during hikes and bike rides along the Moselle.
Ticks
Check your body thoroughly after your outing and use a suitable insect repellent if necessary.
Oak processionary moth
Avoid contact with the caterpillars of the oak processionary moth and their webs. The fine stinging hairs can cause skin irritation and allergic reactions.
Weather Check
Check the current weather forecast before starting your hike or bike ride. In case of thunderstorms, heavy rain, or strong winds, you should postpone your outing or end it early.
Stay on the marked trails
Stay on the marked hiking and biking trails. This protects nature and yourself and avoids unnecessary risks.
Forest Fire Risk
Pay special attention to the current wildfire risk, especially during the summer months. Avoid open fires and smoking in the forest as well as in areas with dry vegetation.
Dogs
Please keep dogs on a leash whenever possible and be considerate of wildlife, grazing animals, and other visitors.
Emergency
In an emergency, you can reach emergency services throughout Europe by dialing 112. Provide your location as precisely as possible and, if possible, use your cell phone’s location feature.
Sturdy Footwear
Wear sturdy, non-slip footwear on hiking trails. Nature trails, slate paths, and steep vineyard trails can be slippery, especially after rain.
Headwear
Wear a hat in warm weather. There are very few shaded areas, especially on the open trails through the vineyards.
Sun Protection
Apply plenty of sunscreen with an appropriate SPF and protect yourself from intense sunlight.
Extend your tour from Neef through Beilstein to Cochem (about 25 km). For the return trip, you can take the train (from Cochem or Neef to Bullay) or the boat.
