Description

Scenic Refreshment stops available

The trail over the Stromberg, where the border between Luxembourg and France runs, offers fantastic views over the Moselle valley to Luxembourg, France and Germany. Here, hikers can experience borderless Europe up close.

3 countries in 3 hours?  From the European Museum, which became famous in 1985 due to the "Schengen Agreement", the hiking path takes you uphill to the nature reserve Strombierg  and on to France in the surroundings of the winegrowing village of Contz-les-Bains. Once at the top, you will enjoy outstanding views over the Moselle valley situated in the tri-border area of Luxembourg, Germany and France. The steep vineyards and wild nature on the Strombierg make this hike a unique experience.After rainy periods, not or only restricted access!
