Die Strecke verläuft auf rund 60 Kilometern entlang der alten Bahnstrecke der Westeifelbahn, von Gerolstein über Prüm bis in das belgische Städtchen St. Vilth. Kleine Ortschaften, Mischwälder und blühende Wildpflanzen begleiten Euch entlang des Weges.
Der Mosel-Radweg beginnt im französischen Thionville und endet am Deutschen Eck in Koblenz. Die ufernahe Strecke windet in durch das enge Tal der Mosel flussabwärts. Ihr bestaunt die steilen Weinlagen, erkundet antike Stätten aus der Römerzeit und genießt die Idylle der Dörfer des Moseltals.
Auf dem Kyll-Radweg radelt Ihr durch die Eifel. Der Fernradweg führt von Dahlem bis in die älteste Stadt Deutschlands, nach Trier. Entlang der Flusses Kyll schlängelt sich der Fernradweg vorbei an zahlreichen Burgen durch die kontrastreichen Naturräume der Eifel. Zu Beginn der Tour erlebt Ihr die Nordeifel mit ihren Talsperren und Seen. Danach geht es durch die zerklüftete Vulkaneifel und weiter durch die Südeifel mit ihren typischen Streuobstwiesen und den charakteristischen Felsformationen des Bitburger Gutlandes.
