12km - Intermediate. A varied loop from Beaufort Castle blending solitude and scenery: deep, silent woods, a hidden WWII chapel, the peaceful Hallerbaach and the wilder Haupeschbaach.

Auto-Pédestre Larochette
7 km – Intermediate. A varied loop around Larochette with 360° views of its château. The Himmelberg and Verluerekascht viewpoints steal the show, offering magnificent castle panoramas that are especially striking at sunset.
Auto-Pédestre Mertzig – Turelbaach Castle
9km - Easy / medium. The newest Auto-Pédestre trail is a gentle countryside loop crowned by one of Luxembourg’s most curious landmarks: the water-ringed turrets of the Château de Turelbaach.
Auto-Pédestre Consdorf
10km – Intermediate. A Mullerthal classic linking Consdorf with the Schiessentümpel waterfall. Ten kilometres of rocky forest paths and sandstone cliffs make this one of Luxembourg’s favourite hikes, challenging in places but unforgettable from start to finish.
5 Great Hikes from the 2025 Auto-Pédestre Guide
The new 2025 Auto-Pédestre guide gives Luxembourg’s classic trails a modern refresh, adding regional gems to revamped existing AP trails. With 202(!) routes to choose from, here are five of my personal favourites.
Schumannseck WWII Memorial Trail
3km – Easy. A short, contemplative walk through a former battlefield near Wiltz, where life-sized wartime photographs merge hauntingly with the forest. Schumannseck is one of Luxembourg’s most original and moving memorials, where history, nature and reflection meet in perfect stillness.
Eislek Pad Boulaide
12km – Challenging. Unexpectedly epic! From a high-tech exhibition in Boulaide to the rocky heights of the Houfels, this Eislek Pad is full of surprises: public art, steep climbs, acorn-strewn paths and sweeping views over the Upper Sûre.
5 Hikes that Step Over the Border
Hiking across borders? In Luxembourg it couldn’t be simpler. Several trails slip effortlessly into neighbouring countries. Boots required, passport not needed.
Nat’Our Route 5 Vianden
13km – Challenging. A spectacular cross-border loop linking the castles of Vianden and Falkenstein. Expect sweeping views, punishing climbs, and the exhilarating Lätgesbierg ridge. Lace your boots up tight and watch your step!
Berdorf B8 Trail
12km - Intermediate. Grandiose Mullerthal scenery without the crowds. The B8 starts with spectacular cliffs and rock formations before quietening into woodland and farmland. Not Berdorf’s top trail, but a good alternative for those seeking a calmer Mullerthal hike.
