Five Challenging Luxembourg Hikes to Try This Summer
Category: challenging
ER1 Erpeldange – Gateway to the Eislek
20km - Challenging. A scenic and physically challenging trail with steep climbs, rocky viewpoints and tantalising glimpses of Bourscheid Castle. A taste of the Eislek.
Eislek Pad Heinerscheid
16km - Challenging. A rugged forest loop above the Our Valley, where the steep gradients, fast-changing weather and ZERO phone signal certainly kept me on my toes. Quiet, remote, and at times unforgiving.
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.
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!
BS4 Château de Bourscheid
10km - Challenging Reimagined to start at Michelau Gare, this version of the BS4 trail climbs steeply to the magnificent "Gringlee" viewpoint before circling back past mighty Bourscheid Castle.
