October 7, 2023,TS Beruser Tafeltour 7.10.23
On this tour I was with a few hiking girls from Wanderfreunde Saarland. Completely spontaneous...these are usually the best decisions. Even though I've been out and about in the area quite often, it was a great tour with the lovely company

Today we went to Berus for the table tour.

Great varied hiking trail. Started at the European Monument with impressive views in all directions.
Past the statue of a light blue metal deer following the symbol of the table tour.

A cross-border table tour in the footsteps of former smugglers with varied Gau landscapes with views over Lorraine and the Saar Valley.

At this time of year and in this area, you can't get through with clean feet. But we knew that beforehand. Nevertheless, a very nice lap, not far to drive and, apart from the muddy sections, also easy to walk. Always impressive, Zolnhofer's work in the Oranna Chapel

Today we went to a monument that is not so well known, the European Monument in Berus. The former Tafeltour, which no longer officially exists since the end of 2023, also starts here. But part of our tour runs along this route.
