Accessible travel along the Mosel

Whether it’s step-free access to the rooms, wide doors and corridors, or grab rails in the bathroom – you’ll find what you’re looking for at our establishments certified by ‘Reisen für Alle’. People with reduced mobility, older people and families with pushchairs are finding an ever-increasing range of options along the Moselle that ensure a comfortable and carefree stay.

From accessible accommodation and easily accessible walking trails to inclusive leisure activities – the Mosel region is continually developing into an attractive destination for all guests. Many hotels, holiday flats and guesthouses have ground-level access, lifts or specially equipped rooms. Before booking, it’s advisable to discuss your individual requirements directly with the provider.

We make holidays enjoyable for everyone. That’s what matters to us!

Barrier-free travel – that is precisely what the “Reisen für Alle” certificate stands for. It recognises tourist attractions throughout Germany that have been assessed for accessibility and documented transparently. Whether for people with reduced mobility, visual or hearing impairments, or other special needs: the certificate builds trust and makes travel planning easier. Instead of vague details, it provides reliable, detailed information – so that everyone really can travel with peace of mind.

The Mosel Valley is well served by local public transport. The transport authorities VRT (Verkehrsverbund Region Trier) and VRM (Verkehrsverbund Rhein-Mosel) provide a well-organised and regular network of bus and train services. 

For travellers with reduced mobility, Deutsche Bahn also provides comprehensive information on accessible journeys to and from the region.

Along the Mosel, numerous venues – from museums and theatres to tourist attractions and swimming pools – offer reduced-price or, in some cases, free admission for people with disabilities, and often for their accompanying persons as well. Discounts are also available in many places for guided city tours and on public transport. Proof of eligibility is usually required, so it is advisable to carry a disability card or a similar document with you. Even if discounts are not always obvious at first glance, it is worth asking specifically about them.

Throughout the region, accessible toilets are available, particularly in public areas and in selected facilities designed to cater for visitors with disabilities. However, they are not necessarily available everywhere. To ensure a stress-free day out, it is therefore advisable to research suitable locations in advance. The local tourist information centres along the Moselle, Saar and Ruwer rivers are a great help here, as are digital resources such as the Wheelmap map.

To ensure a worry-free trip along the Mosel, medical care is also an important part of good planning. This means that, should the need arise, you can quickly find suitable options – for greater peace of mind and a sense of security whilst travelling.
