Saar-Leuktal-Panorama Dream Loop

The starting point of this varied circular hiking trail is located at the entrance to the village of Trassem by the renatured Leukbach. The path leads through an idyllic meadow area with impressive views between the old and new arms of the Leuk, passing through the district of Perdenbach, with a short detour to the Josef Chapel, past a former mill towards the Kreuzkapelle (built in 1704). On the grounds of the Kreuzkapelle, there is an arboretum with a diverse and rare mix of old and new trees. Ascending, the dream loop with a distant view of the Kahren Hoste Tower leads over a ridge path to the Kruterberg (285 m) with a stunning view over the town of Saarburg and the neighboring villages of Kahren and Irsch/Saar. From the Kruterberg, the hike initially follows a hollow way and later the European long-distance trail E3 (from the Black Sea to the Atlantic coast) to the next viewpoint with distant views of the Hunsrück and a magnificent valley view of the Saar and the villages of Krutweiler and Serrig, the first wine-growing village downstream on the Saar. Continuing along the E3, past the Klein Heide shelter (290 m) and over varied mixed forest and meadow paths as well as orchard meadows, the trail leads over the old Roman road (from Perl to Trier) to the Preußische Kupp, the highest point of the hike. From here, you can enjoy impressive distant views, including the Saargau, the Saar Valley, and the Hunsrück. Going downhill, the route returns with wide views to the starting point in the Leuk Valley, passing two oaks that are over 300 years old (natural monument) and beautiful panoramic views of Trassem and the town of Saarburg with Warsberg and vineyards.

Sturdy footwear is recommended.
