The Minett Trail is a fairly new, 90-kilometer long-distance trail through the nature reserves of southern Luxembourg, a region historically significant for its iron ore (minett) extraction. This area, known as Minett, has been influenced by industrial activities, which have shaped its landscapes, culture, and natural environments.
Nowadays, you can hike through 10 stages where nature has taken over again the region where there was such great industrial influence. You’ll even hike through several former open-pit mines. These sites, inactive for over 40 years, have gradually been overtaken by natural regrowth, transforming the ecosystems back to their natural glory.
