Mullerthal

Mullerthal, often called Luxembourg's 'Little Switzerland', is a stunning region in the eastern part of the country. The area is famous for its unusual rock formations, dense forests, and peaceful streams that wind through the landscape. It's one of Luxembourg's most beautiful natural areas and perfect for outdoor enthusiasts.

The region gets its nickname from the terrain that resembles Switzerland, with valleys, cliffs, and forests. The Mullerthal Trail is a network of hiking paths spanning about 112 kilometers, divided into three main routes that take you through the most impressive parts of the region. As you explore, you'll encounter moss-covered rocks, hidden caves, and crystal-clear streams.

Beyond nature, Mullerthal has charming small towns like Echternach, Luxembourg's oldest city. Founded in the 7th century, Echternach is known for its dancing procession, recognized by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage. The local cuisine is also worth trying, with influences from both Luxembourg and German cooking traditions.

The area's history dates back to prehistoric times, with evidence of early human settlements. Throughout the centuries, the region has been shaped by various cultural influences, creating a unique blend of traditions that make this corner of Luxembourg special for visitors who want to experience nature and culture together.
