Description

Scenic
The variety of thematic trails not only shows you the beautiful natural landscapes of the region, but also provides information on a wide range of topics.

The "bunker hiking trail" begins in the place called "Friedboesch", about 2.4 km above Schlindermanderscheid.

During the 2nd World War, there were two bunkers in the immediate vicinity.

During the war, several young Luxembourg conscientious objectors and deserters from the Nazi regime found shelter in one of these bunkers. From the end of May to 10 September 1944, the day of the liberation of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, no fewer than 17 people stayed here. The inhabitants of the neighbouring villages provided food for those in hiding, despite the controls and supervision of the German soldiers.
