Canal bridge

there are some but not very many bridges across the canal. Here is one of them. Offers a very nice view. Unfortunately, you can't get directly to the bridge from Kanalweg.

July 16, 2022,Fahrradtour am Saar Kanal bis Hierbach und zurück

We drove to Hierbach to the campsite. There is a small snack there. We actually wanted to go back to Mittersheim through the small villages, but driving on the main road is not so nice and it was too hot for us. At least a small cool breeze blows along the canal and most of the way is shaded.
