A fantastic bike tour along the Moselle. Water, sun, wind, and great bike paths. The 133km were easily manageable. The route passed the watershed at an elevation of 370 meters.

Today I saw my second kingfisher. They are very beautiful animals.
Otherwise, today's stage was very nice and quiet. There weren't too many people around.
The infrastructure of the path is also improving 😁.

The most beautiful canal route I've cycled …
