Mullerthal trail
The Mullerthal Trail is a 110 km marked route through the fascinating scenic diversity of the Mullerthal Region - Luxembourg's Little Switzerland. Along the three routes, hikers can expect a combination of local wonders: surreal-looking rock formations, moss-covered forests, enchanted stream valleys and vast pasture landscapes. But that's not all! The Mullerthal Trail beckons with hidden viewpoints and cultural treasures just waiting to be discovered.
Each of the three routes has its own unmistakable charm and are each also FKT routes:
Route 1 skilfully interweaves the characteristic landscape elements of rocks, forests, sweeping views and meadows - offering an unforgettable panorama.
Route 2 leads deep into the heart of Luxembourg's Little Switzerland and presents spectacular rock formations that fire the imagination.
Route 3 not only impresses with its enormous rock formations, but also enchants with picturesque stream valleys and romantic castles.
From various starting points, you can explore individual routes on the Mullerthal Trail depending on your mood and fitness level. In addition to these trails, four extra tours offer exciting alternatives and extend the hiking experience.
Certified in accordance with the strict quality criteria of the European Ramblers' Association, the Mullerthal Trail has been awarded the title "Leading Quality Trails - Best of Europe".
The signposts - red M for the routes and orange M for the ExtraTours - accompany you throughout in both directions and show you the way through this breathtaking landscape.

This route combines the three loops (routes 1, 2 and 3) already on the FKT site. You can run these in any order you prefer but need to combine all three in one go. The obvious starting point is in the center of Echternach (the big market square) where both route 1 and 2 have their starting point. It is possible to combine route 2 and 3 by shifting from one to the other when they meet in Mullerthal. In practical terms it means that you can skip the short section common to both route 2 and 3 or run this twice. The gpx example here skips this short section but you still run 98% of both route 2 and 3.
