June 16, 2023,An der Saar Saarbrücken Saargemünd 🚴🌊☀️💮🚴🦆

Via EV5 along the Saar via Kleinbittersdorf-Güdingen to Saarbrücken. Good cycle path.

Today again in high summer temperatures a nice tour from Saarbrücken Castle 🏰 drove towards Saargmünd. The whole thing is almost 50 km there and back. The route can be wonderfully cycled along the Saar or Saar Canal. Many shady sections, some nice places to stop for refreshments A special tip is the café directly on the bridge in Großbliedersdorf …
