The Saar River Cruise - where it takes place and when to go

The Saar flows through France and Germany. It rises at Donon in the Vosges mountains and discharges into the Moselle at Konz after 246 km. The best time for a Saar River Cruise is the months of May to September.

Saar River Cruises - cities and tourist attractions

The lively state capital of the Saarland, Saarbrücken, is one of the largest towns on the Saar. Particularly recommended here are Saarbrücken Castle and the Adventure Museum, home to all sorts of curiosities.

Travelling along the Saar you will experience breathtaking natural landscapes with dark green forests and lush pasturelands before reaching Saarlouis, the fourth largest city in the Saarland. The historically significant cultural highlights include the impressive ruins of the former fortress complex. It is also well worth taking a stroll over the Great Market.

In the beautiful little town of Merzig you can find a wealth of historic monuments such as the church of St Peter. And the Garden of the Senses offers a wonderful opportunity to escape from the hurly-burly of everyday life.

The Rhineland-Palatinate wine metropolis of Saarburg is also on the itinerary of the Saar River Cruise. You should definitely take a look at the Saarburg fortress complex from the year 964. The Leuk Falls waterfall lends the town centre a particularly picturesque touch.
