The small alpine pasture round is a quiet nature path, almost constantly accompanied by wild streams. The half-day route leads through extensive forest sections of the Hochwald. One of the highlights is the Hochwaldalm, where cattle and horses graze in the summer. Due to the shorter distance, the path is also suitable for families and beginners.

Between the Prims and Sollbach, you walk on romantic paths past natural monuments and rock formations. Old border markers as well as fantastic views from Schlossberg over Vogelsbüsch back to Büschfeld complement the hiking trail. The Sollbach valley formed the border between the German Reich and the then "Saar territory," which was under the League of Nations at that time, between 1920 and 1935.

A route that plays with the senses of the hiker. Like the rippled threads of a sweater, the path winds and meanders through the Hochwald. Up and down. Into a valley, over bridges. Back and forth. Up and down. Grand rest places like the disused Herberloch quarry or the giant bench with a view over Weiskirchen. A hiking pleasure at the highest level for the whole family.

Nun heißt die Traumschleife Kleiner Lückner also Genießer Wäldchen, zumindest in Teilen.
Die ersten und die letzten drei Kilometer folgen noch der alten Strecke, der Mittelteil, mit Wildgehege und Golfplatz, ist neu. Beide Abschnitte bieten ein Lokal zur Einkehr (wenn geöffnet), am Wildgehege ist auch eine SB Verpflegung mit herrlicher Aussicht. Das Stück durch die Golfanlage hätten wir persönlich nicht gebraucht, man kommt sich doch irgendwie fehl am Platz vor. Die Wegführung der "neuen" Traumschleife ist insgesamt aber harmonisch und gut zu wandern, hat sie doch nur zu Beginn einen langen Anstieg.
Wissen sollte man, dass die erste SB Box nach ca. 2 km, nur mit Personalausweis zu öffnen geht. Das hätten die Macher an den neuen Infotafeln am Start kommunizieren können, zumal dort auf die beiden Verpflegungsstellen eingegangen wird. Ansonsten ist der Rundweg bestens ausgeschildert, noch hängen die neuen Wegweiser überall. Danke an die Initiatoren der Traumschleife für ihre Mühe.
Zum Zeitpunkt unserer Wanderung, waren hinter KM 7 einige Akazien (Vorsicht Stacheln) umgefallen und haben den Weg versperrt, man kann rechts über das Feld an der Stelle vorbei.
