    Do you love flat river valleys but also seek a sporty challenge? The Mosel-Saar loop takes you along the Mosel, Saar, and Saarland cycle paths over 112 km through an agriculturally influenced, natural, and peaceful landscape. Experience how the diverse river valleys change throughout the day. In the morning, you can observe ghostly wisps of mist over the water, enjoy the sun on the steep slopes of the Saar at noon, and in the evening, take in the breathtaking views from the Saargau. Numerous attractions along the way invite you to take detours: the European Museum in Schengen, the Roman mosaic in Nennig, Konz, the old town of Saarburg with its castle, the Saarschleife, the experiential breweries in Mettlach and Merzig, as well as Villa Borg with its Roman tavern. Want to ride shorter? Then overnight at one of the many establishments along the route. Route details...

    Signage: 90% of the route is signposted, only the section between Merzig and Silwingen is not.

    Author’s recommendation

    Try Roman food at Villa Borg! However, it is about 4 km away from the route.
