With its 3.6 km, this hike is also suitable for those who don't have much time or only want to hike shorter distances. The path winds along narrow trails alongside the Kaasselbaach deep into the Heringer Forest. A highlight of this hike is certainly the ruin of Heringer Castle. The former refuge castle served the Heringer knights as a safe place of refuge. Today, the wall remains carved into the rocks invite you to discover and explore.

At the big adventure playground in Mullerthal, children and families can enjoy a special highlight: a lovingly crafted wooden ball run made from local wood. Along the track, the wooden balls roll through various paths and obstacles, encouraging both skill and observation. The ball run complements the existing playground facilities and offers an attractive, nature-based leisure activity. Wooden balls can be purchased on site from a vending machine. Blending harmoniously into the natural surroundings, it combines play and nature experiences — perfect for a family outing in the Mullerthal Region.

The Natura 2000 area "Vallée de l’Ernz Noire - Beaufort / Berdorf" is located in the Mullerthal Region - Luxembourg's Little Switzerland, which bears its name among other things from the sandstone formations. The area is 4,200 hectares large and, due to the different locations and the climate, has a very high diversity of flora and fauna. In this area there are different protected habitats such as the swamp birch forest in the “Elteschmuer”, various sources of tufa and floodplain and forests. If you are interested in flora and fauna, you can admire rare orchid species in Graulinster, on the Groknapp and in Eppeldorf, on the Hossebierg. The sandstone rock formations are particularly typical of the region. These are home to many different animal species, such as peregrine falcons and eagle owls. There are also many different plants in the rock walls, such as the thin fern. Many bats live in the region's beech forests. In the area of the Black Ernz and Sûre you can admire orchards and flat meadows. Here the black stork is at home as well as the crest hole, which lives in still waters. The water that comes from the springs below the sandstone cliffs has an extraordinarily good drinking water quality. There are also many streams and rivers in the region.

This hike starts at the Heringer Millen in Mullerthal. After a gentle climb through the forest, the path leads over the open plateau landscape and past the golf course to Christnach, which is considered a model village due to its well-preserved rural architecture. Over wide fields and gentle hills, the path finally leads back into the forest and down into the romantically wild valley of the Schwarze Ernz. There awaits the first highlight of the route: the tufa spring, a colorful moss-covered rock over which water cascades into a crystal-clear basin. Always along the river, at the end of the hike you reach the absolute highlight and best-known landmark of the region: the romantic Schiessentümpel with its old stone bridge and waterfall.
