View of Saarburg and Saarburg Castle

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the bridge over the Saar you can enjoy an excellent view of the castle ruins and the St. Laurentius Church. But watch out for the traffic, because even if the main road across the Saar runs a little further south, a car will pass by here every now and then. For a photo, you'd better stop briefly on the bike path on the east bank. Here you are completely undisturbed.

View of Saarburg from the vineyard

Highlight • Viewpoint

It is worth climbing the long stairs into the vineyards, because from the top you have a great view of Saarburg. A little further to the west is the official viewing point.

In beautiful nature and with a magnificent view, you can rush down into the valley on our summer toboggan run. Get on one of our toboggans, let yourself be pulled to the start and enjoy the rapid ride down the more than 530 m long track.
