Devil's Pulpit

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Devil's Pulpit sits enthroned in the middle of the forest above the Tiefenbachklamm. Unfortunately, information about the rock formation is scarce - but it is still an exciting place in nature.

With his 86 years, my old man 🎅 did very well. 👍
The (half) day tour on the border along the Blies with wide + narrow meadow + forest paths is very varied 🏞👌. In particular, the views over the Bliesgau to the Vosges ⛰ are great. The passage restrictions😬 were successfully ignored, which turned out to be good. But …

A varied and beautiful trail, we all agreed. However, the signage was a bit poor in some places. We got lost in the same spot as five years ago 🤦‍♀️. Fortunately, it wasn't a big detour. At another point, the trail was closed, but unfortunately, no alternative route was indicated. We had to guess, and the red and white barrier …

This route is actually a premium route, but at this time of year I can only recommend the route to a limited extent! Due to the long rainy season, the paths are completely muddy almost everywhere, so you definitely have to take a few shoes with you to change. Otherwise it is a very scenic area, you can even see …

The Blies Border Trail is a diverse journey through nature, history, and border experiences. Even at the starting point, you can sense the tranquility of the place, before the trail leads through shady forests and past exciting stops such as the bat trail and the boules park. Time and again, small windows into the past open up – whether at …

Mud, mud and loam at least half the way. I'm sure I won't run anymore.

A nice spring round. We walked this route a few years ago and today we walked the route in reverse order. Blue skies in places and very pleasant temperatures. The Blies still had a lot of water and the Scottish highland cattle were again very worth seeing. However, the path was very muddy and not that easy to walk. Nevertheless, …

A very beautiful, varied tour and always wide views as far as the Vosges... However, today it was (almost) impossible to walk in places... Lots of water and mud!
But... It was fun 😊👍🏻

The hiking trail in the German-French border region south of Saarbrücken runs mainly along narrow paths through dense forest, apart from two viewpoints offering magnificent views of the surrounding area. This route is particularly ideal in summer, as the dense treetops provide pleasant shade.
