Discover traces of the Romans in Rhineland-Palatinate
With more than 2000 years of Roman prehistory, Rhineland-Palatinate is rich in cultural treasures in Trier and Mainz. Numerous cities in the country can be traced back to Roman foundations. The Romans left some important buildings and a large number of archaeologically proven relics.
In the Middle Ages, it was German kings and emperors, archbishops and electors as well as numerous other imperial estates and castles that ruled the territory of today's state, who left behind a large number of historically important buildings, such as in Cochem, Burg Eltz, Lahneck and Ehrenbreitstein.
Rhineland-Palatinate is one of the most densely forested states in Germany, as the forests cover around 42 percent of the state area, resulting in endlessly long hiking and cycling routes, see Moselle cycle path! Not to be forgotten: the green hell of the Nürburgring - probably one of the most famous racetracks in the world.
After an eventful day with many great conversations and hundreds of historic motorcycles due to the racing event organized and named the Cologne Course on the Grand Prix circuit of the Nürburgring, combined with lot of memories of our own motorcycle experiences, it was time for the return trip to Essen.
