This is where the Moselle Cycle Route in France begins or ends (depending on your preference). It's well-developed and a great ride.

🏰 Sierck-les-Bains A historic Moselle town in the tri-border region, boasting a mighty hilltop castle once belonging to the Dukes of Lorraine, narrow streets, and a picturesque clock tower. A place of power where history meets landscape – ideal for culture and nature enthusiasts. Tip: The best time to visit is late morning or afternoon – the light and atmosphere perfectly complement the medieval setting. Parking is available directly at the castle; afterwards, explore the town or continue cycling along the Moselle Cycle Route.

A cozy French town with a magnificent and worth-seeing fortress ruin. Not overcrowded but absolutely beautiful with plenty of charm. Many old buildings, some of which are abandoned, are still worth seeing.
