View of the Völklinger Hütte from the Leinpfad

Highlight • Viewpoint

The towpath leads directly along the banks of the Saar. On the other side of the river lies the World Heritage Site Völklinger Hütte. From the cycle path you have an impressive view of the old ironworks.

Völklinger Hütte Industrial Complex

Highlight • Monument

The industrial culture on the Saar is impressive. Above all, a detour to the Völklinger Hütte (world cultural heritage) is worthwhile.

June 8, 2025,(4,5) von Saarbrücken nach Saarlouis

On June 7th ("a day of rest"), we took tram number 1 (there is only one) to the final stop in Lebach. Due to construction work, we took two bus sections along the way. We returned from the main station to Völklingen by train to visit the former steelworks, a World Heritage Site.
Since there was an exhibition on the …

I briefly considered whether I should take the neighborhood with me, but then we would have ended up back in the beer garden and the documents wouldn't have arrived again. ;-)

June 20, 2025,Saartour Teil 2

Our second tour (E2) along the Saar and Moselle
... took us from Saarlouis, first to the Völklinger Hütte (Völklinger Ironworks) and then to Saarbrücken.

The two Saarbrücken residents, Ines and Rosa, led us to the city's most important highlights, including St. Johanner Markt, the castle, Ludwigskirche (St. Ludwig's Church), the Baracken Church, and the Franco-German Garden.

Thank you both.

February 23, 2025,Saarbrücken - Saarlouis🔄🌤️☀️

Short afternoon trip with G🧒 to Saarlouis for coffee and 🍰. The cycle path between Saarbrücken and Lisdorf, which was newly asphalted last year, is super smooth. Really well done with central reservations in the bends. From Saarlouis to Dillingen, work on expanding the cycle path will probably continue until April/May. But then the negative: unnecessary diversion signs are still …

July 28, 2022,Tour gg. Reizüberflutung von SB nach Dillingen/Saar

Walking the towpath isn't usually my thing. Three exceptions:
1. the bicycle serves as a means of transport,
2. for the sake of someone else,
3. I'm so exhausted that I just help to stubbornly cycle straight ahead for a long time.
This time number 3, therefore no photos.

Also very relaxed from SLS: Hardly any cars on the road.
