The route is on good roads and through very different types of nature. Sometimes beautiful green, sometimes agricultural, many rolling hills, no steep mountain roads. A very varied route. If you like cities, you can combine a visit to Saarbrücken. If you like the war past, you can combine a visit to the Ligne Maginot. The best thing is to continue after Bitche to fort de Schoenenbourg. This is not part of the route.

The first kilometers of the route you pass successively:
- Ehrenfriedhof Elm Sprengen (RP2), this is a cemetery in honor of fallen soldiers in the Second World War
- A clock museum (RP3)
- the Hindenburgturm: a tower in honor of the fallen from the First World War (RP4) and
- Waldfriedhof Riegelsberg: a cemetery with the graves of forced laborers who died in camp Neuhaus near Saarbrücken in the Second World War. (RP5)

Then a beautiful green part begins, followed by the Sepulkral Museum (RP6), this is a Museum about death, being buried and mourning in the town of Dudweiler. Then back into the greenery until the next museum emerges: the Museum für dörfliche Alltagskunde und Museum des Saarländischen Aberglaubens, a nice museum about witches, superstitions and everyday life in Saarland (RP8).

You continue your way through another beautiful green area with a lot to see, because scattered throughout the area are cazemats and other remnants of the First and Second World War.
At (RP11), you could stop for a moment to capture one of the casemates in the photo. A part of the route, at Frohmuhl on the D35 towards Bitche lies Simserhof, part of the Ligne Maginot. It is best to pick up the route again at Frohmuhl. Shortly afterwards, Bitche appears, a beautiful town to eat and / or drink and to visit the citadel.

After the stop in Bitche, a section follows through the woods and then a viewpoint over the reservoir at Mouterhouse (RP16). You should definitely make a stop at Chateau de Lichtenberg (RP18): a beautiful place with an enormous view. The castle is now a theater and there are regular activities. In the village you can have lunch, for example at Au Soleil or have something in the cafeteria at the castle (RP19). If you like jewelry, glassware and sculptures, stop by Musee Lalique (RP20). In Sarreguemines, you can refuel cheaply (you will have driven about 190 kilometers) and visit the old town. Sarreguemines is a nice old town full of history to walk through. Churches, parks, the old city wall and the castle. Also walk along the Saar: very beautiful. There is also a small lock. You can also refuel in Saarlouis, just before you return to the hotel.

After Sarreguemines you drive through Alsace. A beautiful area with many castles and rivers. Unfortunately, many castles are dilapidated or privately owned and many other sights are not here. Especially enjoy the beautiful winding roads.
A route full of sights and stops. It is best to make a choice whether you visit a museum or continue driving and only stop in the cities of Bitche and Sarreguemines. What you should definitely do is eat the famous Flammeküche (Flammkuchen).

This route gets 4 stars from me, because of the varied character, the beautiful surroundings and the good roads.
