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.

Confluence of the Leukbach and Saar in Saarburg

Highlight • River

After the impressive waterfall, the Leuk River flows into the Saar at a sharp angle. This angle is accessible, and the swans also enjoy it here.

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.

February 24, 2025,Mündung Leukbach - Blick auf die Saarburg Runde

Today we didn't cycle comfortably along the bike path but rather through the vineyards. We worked up quite a sweat.

We had a wonderful hike in Saarburg. The city enchants not only with its old half-timbered houses and the waterfalls and streams in the center, but also with the many pieces of information and historically significant details about the many mills and the bell foundry.
