Viewpoint with picnic area on Bietzerberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

If you run the "Bietzerberger" premium hiking trail, this is the end point of the second ascent. There is not a shaded bench next to the table. And wonderful prospects.

The name fits! There are really fantastic views to be admired here. In addition, a varied route across meadows and through forests. You can only give yourself the last kilometer. The nearby freeway is just too noisy.

There is a lot to see on this round.
- Some of the 18,000 bunkers on the west wall can be visited. Partly freely accessible, partly blown up, partly by appointment
- The really impressive Maria shrine "Bildchen".
- Beckingen historical train station
- Saargarten Beckingen
- Distant views of the Saar valley

Dream Loop No. 32, "Beckinger Saarblicke," is easily accessible from Merzig (Saar) train station on the RB70 or 71 to Beckingen in about 10 minutes.

At the train station, a gate with the "Start/Finish" of the TS awaits you. No access, nothing, you're right there.

But there are no Saar views here for now.

First of all:
Great, great tour, great dream loop.

After the previous day's tour, the Wolfsweg, which we can't really get used to even in hindsight,
The Beckinger Saarblicke once again hit the mark.

A bit as expected, we came across the Saarblicke route on the TS Der Bietzerberger at NSG Wolferskopf and followed it to the Fischerberghütte.
And so …

This was a very good tour, which was very well equipped with signposts. You have fantastic views over the entire Saar valley.

Yesterday, because of the beautiful weather, I decided to take half a day off work. One last hike before it gets cold and the bad weather sets in! So, late this morning, I drove to the train station in Beckingen to hike the TS Beckinger Saarblicke trail. And off I went! I just barely managed to snag the last free …
