Hesse - Saarbrucken (or vice versa) or 1 Week - One-way trip

This fantastic cruise through France and Germany can be done either as a One-way trip in either direction or as Return trip to Saarbrucken. Cruise the pretty Canal des Houilleres de la Sarre linking France and Germany and enjoy time at Godrexange lake and watersports at Mittersheim. Saarbrucken is a wonderful cosmopolitan city and capital of Germany's Saarland. Cruising beyond Saarbrucken is not possible without a licence. Please check which boats are available for return trips.

 

Hesse

Base Manager Lauret Soler welcomes you to Hesse. A pretty and quiet village, Hesse has a charm and character that has been preserved over many years. Apart from a well-organised port the village also has the ruins of a Benedictine Abbey from the 11th century, whose church is now the village church.

Saarbrücken

Base Manager Heiner Meyer welcomes you to Saarbrucken. The beautiful river Saar – from which our base takes its name – meanders charmingly through the forested Hunstruck region of the central uplands of Germany and makes for a peaceful and cultural cruising holiday for amateur and experienced cruisers (with navigation licences) alike. From Saarbrucken you can easily venture northwards into nearby Luxembourg or cruise south towards Strasbourg and the historic towns of north-eastern France.
