The climb to the Nackberg, which is about 350m high, is easily manageable from the Hilbringen side. The gradients are in the range of 5-7%, except in the Hilbringen-Seitert residential area and near the Fittener landfill (last bend), where it gets quite steep for a short stretch.

The Nackberg hill, with its Nackberg Cross, lies on the edge of the Merzig Basin and I reached it by car from Hilbringen, heading towards France. A short detour to the Nackberg Cross rewards visitors with a fantastic view of the Merzig Basin.

A well-developed cycle path, highly recommended! You can follow it from the Luxembourg border to Épinal – at the foot of the Vosges Mountains.

⛪ **Saint-Croix Abbey in Bouzonville – Monastic Tradition with a Rich History** The **Saint-Croix Abbey** in **Bouzonville** is one of the oldest monastic complexes in the region. Founded in the **11th century**, it was a spiritual center between the Moselle and Saar rivers for centuries. The Romanesque-Gothic architecture of the monastery church has been rebuilt and restored several times, but its origins remain. 📜 After its dissolution during the French Revolution, the monastery was partially destroyed but later returned to religious use. Today, it is inhabited by a **Benedictine community** that welcomes visitors. **Tip:** The simple, spiritual atmosphere of the complex invites you to pause for a moment. Ideal for a quiet stroll or a quick visit to the monastery shop – featuring handmade products made by the nuns.
