Starting from the village center, the Auto-Pédestre Bourscheid crosses the CR 348 and then leads into the dense forest north of the village. The path descends all the way to the Féischterhaff. This somewhat remote farm is located in a meander of the Sauer. The path now runs southwards, gently uphill to the 10th-century Bourscheid Castle. This triangular castle towers about 150 meters above the Sauer and is accessible only from one side, which deters enemies. Over time, the property developed from a small wooden fort into the impressive feudal castle we know today. Since 1972, it has been state-owned and has undergone constant renovation work. The hike continues eastward. You quickly reach the viewpoint at the Schleedbësch, which offers a wonderful panorama of the castle. After climbing a few hundred meters uphill, the end of the hike comes into sight.

On this route you will encounter two special monuments. At Napoléonsknäppchen, an oak tree rises in honor of Napoleon's son and a viewing platform presents you the plateau. Doigt de Dieu means Finger of God in German. This natural, stone monument may not show you the right way, but marks a magnificent view.

The local hiking trails are marked with the abbreviations of the municipality where they start. The larger the number that the marking sign includes, the longer the circular hiking route. See for yourself the variety of local hiking trails and the different special features in the Éislek.
