SZ -Aktion-Mein-Lieblingsplatz - On the heights of the Saargau: the Nackberg
L 173, 66663 Merzig
If you take a closer look around the edge of the Merzig basin, you will hardly be able to miss it. A cross is enthroned high up on the Hilbringer Nackberg. Generations of schoolchildren know the memorial as the destination of countless hiking days.
But those who make their way up the Nackberg are rewarded with a unique view. To the left, the view extends as far as the treetop path at the Saarschleife. From there, it is a good idea to let your gaze wander further over the tree-filled expanses of the high forest. The dense forests impressively show the extent of the green circle. Merzig and its neighbouring districts lie at the foot of the mountain, with the Bietzerberg a little further to the right. But if the weather is favourable, the Nackberg has even more to offer on a clear day. To its right lies the industrially characterised region around Saarlouis. There, the Ensdorf spoil tip with the Saarpolygon stands out from the otherwise rather flat area. In addition to the marvellous view, it is also worth taking a closer look at the Nackberg itself. The nature reserve is home to a number of apple trees and rare plants. The gateway to the Särkov, as the Saargau is popularly known, is always worth a visit.
