The geographical location of Nittel makes it a special place. The town is located at the foot of steep hills covered with vines. Here you can taste and enjoy some of the best wines in Germany. Overall, the Moselle valley has a long history as a wine region and is famous for its Riesling wines.

In addition to wine tasting, there are many other tourist attractions in Nittel. One of them is the St. James Church from the 12th century, which is well worth a visit. Thorn Castle as well as the former Benedictine monastery of Springiersbach should also be on your list.

Cultural highlights can also be found in Nittel: The annual wine festival in September attracts many visitors and offers you the opportunity to taste local specialities such as Saumagen or Flammkuchen.

If you prefer outdoor activities, then you have many options here: Hiking through the vineyards or cycling along the river Mosel are just two examples.

Even if it rains, there is still plenty to do! Why not take a tour of one of the many museums? Or simply visit one of the cosy cafés or restaurants to indulge in some culinary delights?

All in all, come sunshine or rain, Nittel is always worth a visit. Visit this charming town and experience the beauty of the Moselle valley first hand!

    Eine sehr schöne Etappe. Geheimtipp: Im alten Ortskern gibt es einen Weinautomat mit kühlem Wein! Von dort aus kann man wieder die ursprüngliche Route kreuzen.

    An imaginative walk with dramatic vistas and informative and inspiring information panels. With golden wheat fields in mid-July, it is particularly beautiful.

    Teils super schöne Etappe. Sehr abwechslungsreich, viele Pfade, perfekte Beschilderung und insgesamt sehr ruhiger Verlauf ohne Straßenlärm. Das schönste Stück war der Felsenpfad bei Nittel. Da wurde sich richtig viel Mühe gegeben. Daneben gab es aber leider auch viel Schotterwege, was sehr unangenehm zu wandern ist. Ca. 1 km hinter der Fellericher Aussicht kommt eine tolle Pausen- Jause mit Kühlschrank und netten Sitzgelegenheiten. Aufgrund der schlechten Bewertungen des Stückes zwischen Wasserliesch und Konz bin ich nur bis Wasserliesch gegangen. Das waren dann 2 km weniger.
