Ernzen walks

The Devil's Gorge was formed towards the end of the last ice age, around 10,000 years ago, following one or more rock collapses. Gorges, faults and crevasses make up the rock formations of the Ferschweiler plateau.

This trail is certainly the best known. Gorges du Loup, Perekop, Labyrinthe, Hohlay. We will make a small variation by doing it in a figure of 8 to balance out the discoveries.

From Echternach, with its basilica, abbey and pavilion, you will first follow the Sûre, the river that forms the border with Germany. You will pass imposing rock formations, alternating forests with open landscapes, meadows and beautiful views of the valley.

The Ferschweiler plateau on the German side, the Berdorf plateau on the Luxembourg side and between them the deep Sûre Valley. This route owes its charm to the mixture of rock formations, mazes and panoramic views.

Probably the least touristy part of the Berdorf rock formations up to Perekop, and also the wettest. Walk along paths between rocks covered with moss and ferns.

Trail leading through chasms, caves and crevices to viewpoints on vertiginous rocky plateaus.

Narrow crevices, caves and impressive rock formations are on the agenda for this hike in Luxembourg's Little Switzerland.

Hike starting from the ruins of the medieval castle of Beaufort and heading into the forest with rock formations, viewpoints and streams along the way.

Discover spectacular caves and rock formations on a challenging trail to the Grotte de l'Enfer (Hell's Cave) and a gentle return along the Black Ernz.

Rammelay, Schelmelay, Goldkaul, Goldfralay and Eulenburg are the names of some of the rocks you will encounter along the way. Erosion has created bizarre shapes in the rocks, which can sometimes be compared to enormous heads.

This hike is rated as very difficult if done in a single day, but it is possible to complete it in two or three days with bivouacking. It is advisable to start near Consdorf and stop before Lauterborn to sleep; there are some beautiful spots. 

This circular route connects the villages of Bech and Altrier. You start next to the old Bech railway station, discover the natural site of Bildchen in Altrier (a large oak tree over 1,000 years old) and finish at the 300-metre-long Bech Tunnel. The section between Altrier and Bech offers beautiful views of the valley.

A lovely hike along the Sure river offering numerous viewpoints. Around 40% of the route is through forest, making it particularly suitable in spring and autumn. I completed the hike in 5½ hours with a 50-minute break.

Here is a hike around the Vianden region. Along the way, you will find points of interest and get a semi-complete tour of the region! If you want to see or take other trails, refer to the possibilities on the basic maps!

2nd stage of Extra Tour D of Mullerthal. You will mainly walk on wide paths, notably at the “Gatter”, the 500ha private forest of the Grand Ducal family accessible to the public since 2009. Bourglinster Castle will be your final point.
