Lutwinus Chapel with View of the Saartal

Highlight • Religious Site

The Lutwinus Chapel is in the middle of the forest. A small visit is worthwhile here, because it is not only the enchanted place and the chapel itself, which fascinate, but also the beautiful view of the Saar Valley.

September 6, 2025,Ludwinus Kapelle Mettlach – Holzbrücke über den Leukbach Runde von Besseringen (Saar)

Nothing for MTB, more for endurance riders

July 29, 2021,Saarburg - Mettlach - Aussichtspunkt auf die Saarschleife

City tour in Mettlach and ascent to the Cloef viewpoint above the Saarschleife,
Irene went to Mettlach with the Saarstern, from then on there were three of us on the road again.

October 2, 2021,Schlammschlacht nach Saarburg 🚴😅

Nice tour from Dreisbach up to Nohn, Tünsdorf, Orscholz and through Kollesleuk Switzerland to Saarburg (incl. Castle and Warsberg). Through the vineyard back to the Saar. Short breather with a delicious ice cream before heading back to Dreisbach along the Saar.
Unfortunately it was very muddy in the forest, so we were also sucked in😱.

August 22, 2021,Kollesleuker Schweiz

A slightly different tour.
There were stretches and pushing passages🤷‍♀️
Still, everything was worth it.
Kollesleuk Switzerland alone, a highlight in itself😍💯
And Saarburg anyway.
A really nice tour.
Have a nice evening everyone
