Minett Trail D. O.

Description

Hike the regional Minett Trail between the two train stations of Differdange and Belval-Rédange and let yourself be enchanted by nature in the nature reserves.

The Minett Trail leads trough the Minett Region on 90 kilometres. You can split the trail in ten stages on which you can discover little villages and bigger cities, but also hike through eight nature reserves. These charm visitors with their old woods and former open pit mines whose cliffy rock faces, red rocks and pit brows are unique in Luxembourg.

On this section you hike through the nature reserve "Kiemerchen- Scheiergronn- Groussebësch", which borders on the "Gaalgebierg" of Belvaux. On the way you will also see red rock formations and traces of ore mining. Part of the way leads over an old iron ore transport route, which today looks like an abandoned highway passage. Here, nature reclaims its place steadily. The path leads almost exclusively through an extensive forest area.
