    The Saar cycle route runs for 111 km from Konz to Sarreguemines (Saargemünd). Up to Mettlach, the Saarland cycle route also shares the narrow valley. Worth seeing is Saarburg with the waterfall , Villeroy & Boch and the Saarschleife, which can be experienced from below by a excursion boat from Mettlach or from above at Cloef tree-top path. In Merzig at the swimming pool we end the first part.
