September 29, 2021,Alter Grenzweg Berus/Berviller

Nice path, nice hike for in between.
The route is generally not so well signposted.
But since it leads over some of the paths of the Beruser table tour, you can't get lost. :)

Very nice short hike. Consistently paved paths with beautiful views.

It should be a tour that doesn't go off the beaten path, completely in a hurry and without much thought. Since this was just right for Ela. On the way there I drove out of the sun and into the rain. That made me doubt the decision. On the 🅿️ under the European Monument it wasn't that sparkling, but it …

Been walking the Grenzweg again for a long time. Attention in France, GGG is strictly controlled. If you want to stop by Le Chalet du Chemin, you should have your vaccination certificate with you.

A lovely New Year's hike and the sun was finally shining again after days of fog. When you think about the fact that you can simply walk from Germany to France without any border controls, we can be proud to live in Europe. And we should definitely protect and preserve that.

August 11, 2023,"Alter Grenzweg" - von Berus nach Berviller

For the evening round we met today at the European Monument for the Old Border Path.
It should be a sunset tour. But then we didn't wait for any more shooting stars, as originally thought.
A nice hike, unfortunately mostly on gravel paths.

April 21, 2024,Chemin de la Frontière - Grenzpfad Berviller (F)

The border path is about 7 km long. The start and finish point is the town hall of Berviller. The hike takes 2 to 3 hours. The route is signposted with the official emblem of Europe. There are bilingual information boards at the 15 stations on the circular route.
We started in Überherrn-Berus Oranna Chapel Berus 🥾

We had a really nice hike today.
The view was incredibly beautiful 😍
Except for the trail through the small wooded area between the Oranna Chapel towards the border crossing, which isn't recommended; it's very overgrown in places, and there are fallen trees along the path.
It was still fun climbing over and under the undergrowth 😉.
