Discover 1000 km of scenic routes

​For enthusiasts of outdoor adventures, the "CFL - 1000 km Lëtzebuerg" collection has now been created. This collection is perfect for hikers and cyclists, as it takes them from railway station to railway station, providing directions to the most attractive routes in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. It describes 1000 km of paths and trails with detailed descriptions and practical information that caters to every level of experience, from family outings to challenging hikes for sports enthusiasts.

43 hiking circuits to explore

​Luxembourg's stunning landscapes, from the Ardennes' plateaus and valleys to the Moezel's sun-kissed hillsides and the canyons of the land of the Red Rocks, offer numerous opportunities to explore. "CFL - 1000 km Lëtzebuerg" describes 43 circuits, ranging from 4 to 30 km in distance, each linked to a railway station. Maps with scales of 1:20,000 and 1:50,000 show each point of interest, tourist attraction and of course the location of the railway stations.
​Some circuits run along exceptional infrastructure routes, such as the Escapardenne Eisléck Trail, which is recognised as the "Leading Quality Trail - Best of Europe." The "Manternacher Fiels" path has been certified as a "boucle de rêve" by the Deutsches Wanderinstitut and its 90 attractions make it one of the most attractive hiking routes in the area.

14 bike trails for cycling enthusiasts

Cyclists can also indulge in the updated and revamped guide provided by CFL. The guide includes around 14 cycling routes that start from a railway station and are combinable. Additionally, bike transport by train is free as long as the train isn't full.
Maps with a scale of 1:100,000 and a map that clearly shows the cycling network make it easy to plan and design your cycling route in advance. What's more, both bike and hiking maps are detachable and protected by a supplied cover, so you can take them on your journey with ease.

Expert-guided walking tours

On the first Wednesday of every month, CFL, in partnership with regional tourism services, organises expert-guided walking tours from railway station to railway station. Take advantage of the chance to discover the Grand Duchy's most beautiful landscapes while enjoying the expert's funny anecdotes and interesting facts. These walks, which range from 6 to 12 km, are offered at varying levels of difficulty. Participation is simple, just show your train ticket and pay a supplement of 15 euro for a picnic lunch. And, of course, don't forget to enjoy the train journey itself! CFL reveals a sneak peek of the next destination ten days before departure.
