By now (9th) we were in need of a laundry stop so we found a campsite on our route north and booked in for two nights. Camping Waldfrieden is set in the woods just outside Saarburg, a town on the River Saar, south of Trier and close to the Luxembourg border.

In the 13th century the River Leuk was redirected through the town centre to join the Saar. The resulting waterfall was used to power three water wheels of the town mill (now a museum). The cascades are now surrounded by flowers and street cafes making a very pleasant spot for an evening meal.
