From the church, I headed to the Saar, following the Saar riverbank path to the ferry landing at the Saarschleife, where I took a long break on the waiting bench. After a short stretch …

March 9, 2025,Burg Montclair 🥾mit Saarschleife Tafeltour

Wow, what a beautiful tour to finally get rid of the winter blues. The weather, the hiking route and so on... it was just perfect 😁. I was also able to inaugurate my new pilgrim's staff (a gift from my dear colleagues) on the section of the Way of St. James 🥾😘.

Thank you @Wo ist Andreas 😊, we discovered the tour with you and we really liked it! We were surprised by the castle 🏰 Montclair, which has been very well renovated and is also worth a break 🍻
The church ⛪️ St. Gangolf and its courtyard with the oak tree 🌳 (650 years old) were another highlight 🤩

Unfortunately we had to reschedule the tour due to the failure of the ferry. But the reward was the magnificent view from the St. Ganggolf church towards the Saar!

I had seen this tour at Andreas Bell's and wanted to extend it today. But then there was an invitation for coffee and cake and I even had to cut it short. No matter.....then I have to go there again
