🌄 Stromberg – Limestone cliffs near Niederkontz A dry rock formation on the Stromberg summit – 314m high – surrounded by forest, with views of the Moselle Valley and the Luxembourg hills. A tranquil spot with an impressive panorama. Tip: Ideal on clear days – a short detour from the path is worthwhile for a nature photo with a truly striking effect.

The view from the vineyards over Perl to Schengen and France is fantastic. And in clear weather you can see very far.

This plateau lies between the Saar and the Moselle. Once you've made the climb, the landscape rolls on in gentle waves. Once at the top, there is a really wide and beautiful view of the border region Germany - France - Luxembourg.

Between Germany and France... between Lorraine and Saarland: there is a wide area here and your eyes can wander into the distance from the heights, to the Vosges, the Palatinate Forest... The menhir path with the stone sculptures gives the solitude up here a strange companionship.
