    Hiking

    A beautiful hiking destination together with the military cemetery. You can supplement this with a visit to the source of the white Saar.

    Cycling

    From here you can not only start a bike tour towards the estuary. From here you can also take the Saar hiking trail to Konz.
    However, a bike ride along the Saar to the mouth is a unique experience. Above all, you meet a lot of friendly people in France who are always there to help you.

    Hiking

    Even though the two sources of the Saar headwaters are less than 1km apart, they only join after flowing for over 26km each.
