Esch-sur-Sûre walks

A demanding 40 km marathon trail around Lake Sûre (1350 m elevation gain/loss) in the heart of Luxembourg's wild landscapes. A technical and varied circular loop, highly recommended for trail shoes. Start and finish in Esch-sur-Sûre to enjoy a good meal or a well-deserved drink at the end of the course. Option to complete the route in two days: see details in "Description".

Wiltz, the capital of the Luxembourg Ardennes, has a beautiful Renaissance-style castle and is an ideal starting point for hiking.Numerous marked trails (circular or not) allow you to explore the region in complete safety.

Circular hike around Lake Haute-Sûre and Pont Misère. Between trails and viewpoints, a concentration of the best paths and trails with a more substantial distance.

Circular route in the Our Nature Park, taking part of the Escapardenne Lee Trail. Route can be done in all seasons.

From one side to the other, circular walk from Kautenbach in the Our Nature Park.

Head to Schuttbourg Castle via three national trails: the Escapardenne Eisleck Trail, the Sentier du Nord and finally the Escapardenne Lee Trail.

Starting from Michelau station (free parking, free access by train or bus from anywhere in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg), the walk heads south, crosses the Sûre (a river similar to the Ourthe and Semois in Belgium) and climbs up the right bank, following its course along a forest path, a small country road and a slightly steep trail.

Route in Hosingen Park, taking part of the Escapardenne Lee Trail and the Hoscheid sound trail, which can be enjoyed at any time.

This path winds through the Schlindertal valley. A slight detour will take you to its memorial. The isolated Saint-Michel chapel is a remnant of an ancient village that is now uninhabited. The highlight of the hike is the Molberlee, an exposed slate ridge offering spectacular views of the valley.

A walk starting from Warnack and passing through Strainchamps, Hotte, Bodange, Wisemback and Radelange. Part of the route is in Luxembourg. The walk is mainly on forest paths with little tarmac.

We offer you a historical interlude in the footsteps of the series "Band of Brothers" and the Battle of Bastogne. During the winter of 1944-1945, here in the Ardennes, one of the longest and most gruelling battles of the Second World War took place.

Chapels to discover in the villages of Parette and Nothomb, a state-owned reserve in the Nothomb valley to cross, border marker 151 to find in the middle of the woods: this is what's on offer on this circular starting from the village of Nothomb.

A climb from Clervaux to a superb view of the abbey bell tower and the valley, then a route mainly through forest, finally returning along the Irbich river on country roads or dirt tracks. You can shorten the walk by continuing from (6) to Drauffelt station (6 km in total) and returning by train (free on the GDL).

The Bernistap Canal is a section of the canal that the Dutch had planned to build to link the Rhine to the Meuse via the Moselle and the Ourthe. Begun in 1827 during the reign of WilliamI, King of the Netherlands, work was suspended in 1830 during the Belgian revolution and finally abandoned when the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg gained independence. This canal has an underground section, the entrance to which on the Belgian side is still visible at km 1, if you are feeling adventurous. A few information panels are located along the canal between km 1 and km 2, as well as on the Luxembourg side (except for the section leading to the village of Hoffelt).

Between the three villages of Rachamps, Hardigny and Neufmoulin, nestled between woods and countryside 

The two Ourthes, the eastern Ourthe and the western Ourthe, meet at Engreux to form the Ourthe. Slightly downstream from their confluence, man built the Nisramont dam to form Lake Nisramont.
