FAQs: Luxembourg
What should I know about Luxembourg?
With an area of slightly more than 2,500 square kilometers, Luxembourg is one of the smallest countries in the entire world. In spite of this small size, however, there are still plenty of great outdoor activities to try out.
The most popular are hiking and trail running in the summer. In fact, Luxembourg boasts several popular long distance trails, including the aforementioned Escapardenne Eislek Trail.
Away from these long distance trails, there are plenty of other great places to explore. Among the hiking hot spots in the little country is Oesling, which is home to many medieval castles and ancient villages. Hiking through the hills and passing through these towns is the perfect way to disconnect from Europe’s busy urban areas and reconnect with its natural splendor.

Run cross country, literally
In the northern reaches of the country, where the beautiful Ardennes are found, the country only has a width of 10 to 15 kilometers. For a dedicated trail runner or hiker, this means you could go from France to Germany in only a day. Take that rare opportunity to really run across an entire country.

The trip was fantastic. Beautiful scenery and landscapes together with majestic hills. We lived a camping lifestyle for two days which was very enjoyable and even though we were relieved to finish after a tough 2 day trek, we instantly missed the feeling of being in the outdoors and away from the city. Our guide Thibault was excellent. He was the perfect guide for the trip, so helpful and knew what he was doing - couldn’t ask for better.
