Description
Discover a different side of the Minett region on this tour between Bascharage, Sanem, Bettange-sur-Mess and Schouweiler.
Over slightly more than 23 kilometers, the “Mam Vëlo iwwer Kopp an Dall” tour leads you through the north of the Minett region. From Bascharage, you first ride south towards Sanem, before taking a large arc towards Bettange-sur-Mess to the north. The route includes a number of climbs, but also shady, wooded sections where you can catch your breath again. From Bettange-sur-Mess, you ride on to Schouweiler, before the route arcs again down to Hautcharage and your starting-point at “Op Acker”.

Directions
Start off from the “Op Acker” school car park in Bascharage, heading south. Take care when crossing the main road! Follow the PC6 cycle path to Sanem, past Sanem Castle, as far as the industrial area. Here you turn off left and follow the cycle paths along Rue Kallekerbësch and Rue Uerschterhaff, until you turn off left back towards Sanem at the Arsdorferhaff farm. Shortly after, you will hit the PC9 cycle path, which you follow for a while until taking a left turn half-way to Limpach and heading towards Schouweiler. Following this regional cycle path, you reach the junction just before Sprinkange, where you turn right towards Bettange-sur-Mess/Dippach-Gare. In the village, the route takes you along the main road to Sprinkange and then onwards on traffic-calmed roads to Schouweiler. Warning: in Schouweiler, the route briefly crosses the heavily-used Route de Longwy. Via Rue du Neuf Septembre and Schéiferwee, the route leads upwards for a final time into a wooded area, before taking two left turns in quick succession and bringing you into Hautcharage. From here, the route follows Rue des Prés down to your starting-point at “Op Acker” in Bascharage.
