On the return trip, you can take in the enchanting variety of the
landscape and the captivating beauty of nature along the rail line.
If you'd like to discover northern Luxembourg, you'll find plenty of

wanderwege-bahnhof.
In the east, the path from Manternach station to Wasserbillig is
enchanting in the truest meaning of the word. Through the lower Tal
de Syr until where it meets the Moselle, this tour runs over the Saar-
Hunsrück Premium trail "Traumschleife Manternacher Fiels" and the
Pierre Moes Nature Trail. A challenging hike in pristine nature.
The route Luxembourg – Echternach – Wasserbillig is for experienced
cyclists. This 70-km-long route runs from Luxembourg's main station
over the Kirchberg Plateau to the German border in Echternach,
much of it on the old Roman road called the Kiem as well as the rightof-way
from the the old narrow-gauge railway, Charly.
