Description
Leisurely hike without much ascent, mainly through the forest, passing Meysemburg Castle and back to Larochette with a great view of the castle.
The picturesque village of Larochette (also called Fiels) lies in a valley surrounded by rocks and forest landscape. In the town center, the so-called "Bleech", you can find restaurants, cafés and hotels as well as various shops inviting you to stroll and linger. The landmark of Larochette is the castle ruins, which sit on the rock above the town and offer a romantic view. The castle ruins can be visited.
The hiking route leads from the beautiful village of Larochette along the idyllic Manzebaach to Meysemburg, located halfway along the hiking route. The castle is currently uninhabited but architecturally very impressive. The castle is surrounded by an idyllic forest and park landscape, where picnic benches invite hikers to a leisurely break in nature.
At the end of the hike, you reach the viewpoint Verluerekascht near Larochette. Here you are rewarded with an impressive view of the town and the opposite castle ruins.
