Park in the car park at the Chapel of St-Léon.
(S/E) Cross the Rd96, then take a small right/left/right turn to reach the forest road, which we will follow for 300 metres.
(1) Take the path on the right that descends into the forest to Eigenthal.
(2) Pass the chalets and 300 metres further down you will reach the village of Eigenthal.
(3) Turn left and walk past my childhood home a little further on, then enter the woods. Follow the path for 400 metres, where it ends and the trees are all lying on the ground over an area measuring 500 x 200 metres. It is almost impossible to cross, so I chose to go around this area at the bottom and climbed up to the left. Aim for the rocks above and try to reach and cross them. Once on the rocks, you will find a path that you will follow to the right.
(4) After 1500m, turn left to climb up to the Roche du Diable viewpoint.
(5) Beautiful view of Abreschviller and the Sarre Rouge valley. You can also stop for a snack here, as there are two tables. Return to the previous crossroads.
(4) Turn left onto the path that descends. You will reach a new crossroads in a hairpin bend.
(6) Turn right to reach Eigenthal and the crossroads you passed on the way there.
(3) Follow the same route as on the way out until you reach the crossroads with the chalets.
(2) Take a small detour to the right that leads to the forest road and the initial crossroads.
(1) Turn right to reach the Saint-Léon car park (S/E).
(S/E) Take the path directly north to reach the Saint-Léon Cave after the chapel.
(7) Return via the same route to the Saint-Léon car park (S/E).
