Mountain biking

Former Cistercian monastery, located 315 meters high above the Bliestal near Wörschweiler. Can be reached from all directions. It's also great to plan a mountain bike trip as a detour from the table tour in Kirkel. But also goes a direct way (albeit quite steep) from Wörschweiler up.

Hiking

Wörschweiler Abbey (Verneri-Villerium) is a former Cistercian abbey in Saarland. The abbey was located in the forest on a 315-meter-high ridge above the town of Homburg, near what is now the Wörschweiler district of Saarland. Older sources also use the name Werschweiler.

Hiking

It can be reached from Wörschweiler via a steep, winding path. Very exciting. And when the ruins of the monastery suddenly become visible above, it is very impressive and beautiful
