    Mountain biking

    According to legend, a knight was fleeing from his enemies when his horse halted in the deep abyss that opened up here. In his almost hopeless situation, he prayed to St. Michael and praised the building of a chapel if he received help. Then he spurred his horse on and bravely jumped over the floods of the Saar. His enemies were unable to follow him. But he reached the other bank unscathed and built this chapel here, which he dedicated to St. Michael.

    Hiking

    From here you can walk the horizontal Kaiserweg to Mettlach or go by bike. In between you will find a waterfall (currently too dry) and great grandiose views!
