Mullerthal Trail

This long-distance hike is slightly different from other hiking trails. The path consists of three so-called ‘loops,’ averaging 38 kilometers each, that overlap here and there. Most hikers choose to do a portion of each loop from a single base location. This means you select one place to stay (camping or accommodation) that is your base, and from there travel each day to the starting points of the different walks to experience the most beautiful parts of the Müllerthal Trail. Public transport is never far away and is even free in Luxembourg to take you back to your campsite or accommodation. Also, there’s a great option to hike this trail as a long-distance trail as we outlined in the stages sections.

The best time of the year to hike the Mullerthal Trail is from late spring to early autumn, specifically between May and October. During these months, the weather is best for hiking, with warmer temperatures and longer daylight hours. Note that it can be snowy and temperatures drop dramatically in the winter months here.

Always bring your essentials for a better trail experience, like shoes with enough grip, especially when it rains and the paths can be muddy. Bring your layers, at least a baselayer, mid-layer, and a hardshell rain jacket for occasional rain showers. Take enough water and food with you and always put the GPX in an app for navigation on your mobile phone.
