Wine is as much a part of Luxembourg as the Echternach spring procession. This excursion in eastern Luxembourg takes us to the Moselle, through the heart of Luxembourg viticulture. Steeply sloping vineyards and small winegrowers' villages that have preserved the charm of bygone days line the way. A detour to Schengen, where the Schengen Agreement for the gradual removal of border controls was signed, and to the nature reserve "Haff Réimech" near Remerschen is definitely worthwhile (+20km). You cycle along the border with Germany on the Moselle and Sauer. A visit to the basilica in Echternach should definitely be planned. A detour to the impressive Vianden castle is also possible (+20km). The Alzette, the smallest of the three rivers you cycle along, takes you back to Luxembourg City. The route can also be shortened. From Echternach, the national cycle path (PC2) runs via Consdorf and Junglinster to Luxembourg City. However, this section is more demanding due to many elevation meters.
