Tourist information with a regional section (good wines from the region), Bistro Mirabell with delicious dishes and the beginning of the treetop trail. A nice place to stay.

We left late this morning because it was very foggy. Fortunately, the sun broke through quickly, and it turned out to be a lovely ride. There's quite a carnival around the Saarschleife, but the views are, of course, magnificent. And a kilometer further, you don't see a soul. Beautiful day.

The treetop path with a total length of 1,250 meters and the tower with a height of 23 meters winds its way through beech and oak trees in the direction of the Saarschleife. Of course, the view from the tower over the Saar loop was impressive in this great weather, a special experience.

The circular trail "Traumschleifchen Weitblick" goes from Orscholz to the Cloef vantage point.
From there you have THE view of the Saarschleife 👍.


A cozy round. At over 30 degrees there was no more 🥵

... unexpectedly soon finished work today. Immediately off to go to the Saarschleife again. The last time I was there there was a parking lot, hiking trails and of course the lookout point.
Today: large car park (chargeable), visitor center with restaurants, treetop path (chargeable anyway) and an adventure playground (who would have thought it, chargeable). The direct way to …

There are a lot of hiking trails on the Saarschleife. Our choice fell on the 4km long dream loop Weitblick.
Here it went first to the Cloef lookout point and then on through the forest to another lookout point and to the Orkelsfels (be sure to go up!)
Most of the way we could also walk with our old dog …

A varied, short but beautiful hiking trail.

You pass great and beautiful vantage points.
There is a lot of variety between forest and fields (e.g. Strauss Farm).
