Sarreguemines (Saargemünd) is a pretty little town located on the Franco-German border and right on the Saar river. Fantastic for any sport!

The Hoste Bas pond borders the Hoste Haut pond. It was part of the Maginot Line defense system. Today, they are home to numerous species of fish, much to the delight of anglers.

From the cycle path, you can see the old Saar barges. These were built between the two world wars. They were previously pulled by hand on the canals and rivers; they were said to be towed (hence the name towpaths), now rehabilitated as cycle paths.
