It was a beautiful sunny day in March but stepping into the Gorges Du Loupe was like entering another world. It feels like a prehistoric landscape, with towering rock faces and dense tree cover, even though there were no leaves yet on the trees.

I followed the E1 circuit, starting and ending in Echternach, going anti-clockwise, some 14km which took around 3.5 hours. Heading up to the gorge and onward to the Labyrinth involved a steep climb and slippery dark stone steps for the first few kilometres. I found it very slow going, climbing up and down, watching my feet the whole time. After the first 5km or so, the route was much easier, with more gentle climbs up and down, mainly along a forest trail on a sandy track.

All the various routes are extremely well signposted throughout – there were only a couple of moments of wondering which way to go next and it very quickly became clear. Plenty of resting points, bridges and rippling streams to enjoy. Not too busy, even though it was a sunny Saturday, but enough people on the quieter stretches of the route that there wasn't that 'what if' that can come when hiking solo.

The first pic shows the steps up through the gorge, then the view down from the 'bridge' which extends across to give a panoramic view out over the countryside and over the gorge below - as per second pic.

Also a map track for the route - in two sections as I stopped to eat lunch after the first 8km - and a flavour of the elevation of the first stretch, and my...

Beautiful trail which leads to an incredibly nice viewpoint over Echternach. Takes about a half an hour walk from the Bel Air hotel / bus stop to get there. Across this hotel walk up the small steps, go left and follow the trail until you reach the paved road. Take a right here, so don't keep following the E1 trail. You should notice a colorful sign with Wolfsschlucht there pointing you to walk up right off the stone wall building. Follow that trail going up. At the intersection keep right following the sign pointing to the Mullertal trail in 50 meters. Once you get to the sign post with many different routes and directions take the route going up. Just follow this trail and after some time you'll get to a point with steps going up at both sides and steps going down if you go straight. Take the steps up on the right and you'll get to the viewpoint. Even when raining badly you can still walk this trail. Not that muddy and quite a bit...

Lieu exceptionnel et préservé en plein nature 🍃

C’est très montagneux, on se croirait randonner à travers des chaînes de montagne tellement le paysage est beau au-dessus de nos yeux ⛰

Étant de nature très sportif, cela ne m’a pas posé de difficultés particulières mais il faut noter avant d’y aller d’avoir de bonnes jambes 🦵🏻 le site étant très escarpé et c’est vraiment physique !

Si on est bon sportif, ça pose aucun souci sinon si votre condition physique est moins bonne, prévoyez au moins plus de pause, arrêt, un sac et des bouteilles d’eau 🙂

Quand on a gravi, on pourra admirer de belles vues et faire autant de belles photos, la juste récompense au bout de l’ascension ! Faut pas avoir trop le vertige, sinon regardez pas dans tous les fossés, y’en a de très profonds et très vertigineux à admirer autrement.

On aurait pas dit en regardant en avant les photos sur Google du site mais je crois qu’aucune autre ascension m’aura autant épuisé.

Pour un moment de pause pique-nique, c’est super top, y’a tout ce qui faut en haut ou en chemin à intervalles réguliers : tables bancs etc.

C’est beau sans être aussi fou que peuvent le laisser penser les notes mais pour être impressionné, il ne faut surtout pas louper les grottes souterraines, j’ai vu sur les photos et je me demandais où c’était l’entrée, j’ai trouvé seulement sur la fin de mon périple, mais c’est à proximité des montagnes et entrée du site une fois qu’on a gravi, on se croirait le temps d’un instant à faire de la spéléo, c’est juste magique ✨ prenez une torche pour la visiter jusqu’au fond même si c’est pas si long et profond, j’avais jamais fait c’était somptueux à voir même...

Wer atemberaubende Natur erleben will, ist hier genau richtig. Je nachdem, an welchem Ort man in die Wanderroute einsteigt, wird man von immer höher werdenden Steilwänden und faszinierenden Felsformationen umringt. Ein grandioses Erlebnis hier entlang zu laufen! Die Wege sind gepflegt, klar definiert und selbst für die kleinsten unter uns, gut zu bewältigen. Allerdings sollte man Treppen lieben, die vielzahl der Stufen hat bei unserer Gruppe für den ein oder anderen Lacher gesorgt. Ich habe selten so viele Stufen auf einer Route nehmen müssen. Für kurze Pausen gibt es genügend Bänke und Sitzmöglichkeiten um sich zu stärken. Hat man erstmal alle Stufen erklommen, wird man oben angekommen mit einer sehenswert tollen Aussicht belohnt. Über das Flusbett auf die deutsche Seite schauend z. B., sieht man ganz klein die Liboriuskapelle. Neben den naheliegenden Sehenswürdigkeiten Labyrinthe und Perekop ist die Kapelle auf jeden Fall den Weg wert. Alles in allem kann man hier, in der geologisch sehr interessanten Gegend viele tolle Dinge erkunden und erleben.
