Tips
The Saarschleife is probably the most famous sight in the Saarland. You get a particularly impressive sight from the viewpoint above the valley, but it's just beautiful down here too. You can drive directly on the water and the wooded steep slope of the nature reserve rises above you.

The Saar loop is a breakthrough valley of the Saar through the Taunus quartzite and is one of the most famous sights of the Saarland.
The most popular view is the Cloef viewpoint, 180 m high above the river, in the Orscholz district of Mettlach. The bank is formed by rock walls, rubble heaps and small ravines.
An area of around 100 hectares west of the Saarschleife is under nature protection as the Steinbachtal west of the Saarschleife.translated by•August 18, 2017
