Today at 32 degrees ☀️ a bike ride to Lake Bostal with a return trip via Schmalzberg. Three times we made sure to replenish drinks, that was necessary!! Unfortunately, we didn’t always find the (official) bike path or took a detour and then had to use the road, which was unpleasant because of the heat and car traffic. Next time we will take a look at the bike path map beforehand!
Summary: Varied but demanding round trip in Saarland.

MTB 5 around Marpingen is ideal for familiarising yourself with and adapting to the rather hilly landscape of Sankt Wendel County.
Although the tour is only 21.6 km long, it does offer some steep climbs. It leads mainly through a forest environment on unpaved paths and trail sections. But you are always rewarded with marvellous views and an impressive landscape. Connections and parallel routes to MTB 6 offer great combination options. You can always recharge your batteries and treat yourself to a break at the catering establishments along the route. If you feel like it, you can visit the Härtelwald Marian Worship Site with Mary's Spring. Cool your tired feet and legs in the Kneipp walking pool.
