Since I spontaneously drove to Saarlouis for the Decathlon, I chose a small dream loop on the way home.
It was really OK and easy to walk; nothing was of medium difficulty. There is a little climbing, but nothing wild and there is a rope to hold on to, although it is probably not used often or the path is …

Today, on the recommendation of a hiker we met by chance yesterday, we set out on the Litermont summit hike. A very good decision! Around 24 kilometers from our accommodation, it's easily accessible and, at 10 kilometers long, just the right route for a half-day outdoors.

⛅️🚶🏻‍♀️🐕 The Litermont is a small mountain range in the Saarland region, its summit reaches an altitude of 414 meters, and that's where I went today.
Before the start of the circuit, I found a beautiful collection of old agricultural machines exhibited outdoors and also a very well-preserved bunker from the Second World War.
A little further on, a wooden …

I've been wanting to do the Litermont summit tour again for a long time. This morning I had time and after @🚶🏻‍♀️Ela mit 🐕 Lupo showed me another parking lot, I started from there. There are plenty of other paths and trails there that you can explore. Despite it being so early, there was already a lot going on.

From the forest car park we followed the signs towards the biotope. Many narrow forest paths, wide forest trails, a few bridges and field paths lead us past the willow dome up to the summit cross. For the ascent and descent we opted for the more difficult options over the rocky paths. These are specially secured with ropes. The descent …

Hello everyone, we went on a lovely hike today, although I must say that driving 110 kilometres in total was too far if you live nearby, it is definitely a must. Greetings from the beauties 😃👍👍

The start and finish today is at the forest car park in Nalbach, on the Litermont.
Nalbach belongs to the district of Saarlouis in Saarland.
A hiking trail that we used to love to hike. After two years, we were looking forward to the circular hike today.
