Excellent playground with many forest paths. Not far away, the Hussards hill has several mountain bike trails.

The Bisten is a charming river that widens at this point to offer a beautiful view of a body of water in the middle of the woods.

The route allows you to access the source of the Halberg by following the markings. A good spot to cool off.

The Hussards hill is a beautiful place for mountain biking. Several circuits are available at its entrance.

Inaugurated in May 1970, this monument is intended to "express the European-democratic attitude of the border population on both sides of the border." The two pylons represent the countries of Germany and France, which have been at war with each other for centuries. The metal bars in the upper area symbolize the friendship that developed after the Second World War.

What happened here? As soon as it becomes an official part of a dream loop, the path is cleared. Twice as wide as before and twice as high. No more ducking! 😬
