The north-eastern part of Luxembourg is known as Little Switzerland thanks to its impressive rock formations and hiking trails that make you feel like you’re in the mountainous area of the Alps. There’s plenty of walking routes here, but if you’d just like to get an overview for starters, or see the whole region in a day, why not plan a drive-through tour? From Echternach, you drive to Scheidgen via Lauterborn. In Consdorf, you turn right to Berdorf, then through the valley of the Black Ernz to Grundhof, Beaufort, Dillingen and Weilerbach. Plan in some stops to see impressive sites!
