I love Trier as a city - can't tell you about the Christmas market. What put you off Belgium and which one were you planning on there?

If you are coming south from Belgium I would suggest swinging through Mastrict to Vaulkenburg's underground Christmas Market, then to Aachen (very nice market this year), south to Manschau (sp?), then take the road to Pruem and get on the A60 south, take the Bitburg turn (Bitburg has a small but very nice market) on the B52 to Trier. They are right...you will enjoy the Trier Market very much.
