Wallendorf Pont: Hiking, River and Culture

For a trip to Wallendorf Pont, hiking, water activities, and a themed walk offer different focuses. The hiking trails highlight different landscape features; an approximate duration is also provided for the canoe and kayak route. If you are looking for a hotel, you can plan your stay around whether you intend to spend more time on foot, on the water, or on a walk.

Hiking between the Sauer Valley and panoramic views

The local R1 hiking trail is in the vicinity of Wallendorf-Pont. It first runs through the Sauer Valley, then through the forest on Héibierg and along the Kuerbaach to Bigelbach. Along the way, you will pass the rare and protected “Hart's-tongue fern.” The route therefore offers a distinct sequence of valley, forest, and stream; the fern is a specific natural feature. If you enjoy observing both landscape features and plants while hiking, you can identify the R1 by these characteristics.

The Mullerthal Trail ExtraTour B is also in the vicinity of Wallendorf-Pont. Its area lies between Beaufort and the Sauer Valley. The route offers panoramic views of the valleys of the Our and the Sauer. The difference can be clearly described when choosing between them: the R1 is noted for its valley, forest, and stream sections as well as the fern, while ExtraTour B focuses on views of the two valleys. This lets you choose a hike based on the landscape feature that interests you most.

A themed walk

The themed walk “Promenade du Souvenir” starts in Hoesdorf, Reisdorf, Bettendorf, and Wallendorf-Pont. Wallendorf-Pont is therefore one of four named starting points; the other places offer alternative places to begin. If you would like to include a themed walk in your plans, you can choose the starting point to suit your travel plans. The place name Wallendorf Pont also appears in the title of the Natura 2000 protected area “Vallée de l’Our de Ouren à Wallendorf Pont.”

Canoe and kayak trip

The canoe and kayak route between Wallendorf-Pont/Wallendorf and Bollendorf is 11 km long and takes about 3 to 3.5 hours. Water conditions can affect the duration of the trip. The route is suitable for beginners; weather, water levels, and the provider’s conditions should also be taken into account. Treat the duration as a guide and check current conditions before your trip. This lets you include the approximate time commitment in your day’s plans without treating it as a fixed travel time.

Fishing on the Sûre

Fishing is permitted on the Sûre between Reisdorf and Wallendorf-Pont. As you may need to check fishing regulations before your trip, confirm the rules in force for this stretch before setting off.
