Route description
After leaving the station situated a short distance north of the abbey town, ramblers start their walk by crossing Clervaux, along the banks of the Clerve. Visiting one or the other tourist attractions of the city is certainly worthwhile. The trail then follows the wooded heights of the winding valley of the Irbich brook. Passing through the typical landscapes of the Naturpark Our nature reserve, the trail essentially uses national and international rambling routes such as the ESCAPARDENNE Éislek TRAIL, a 106 km cross-border Ardennes trail ranking among the Leading Quality Trails – Best of Europe. The two tough climbs on this CFL trail are characteristic for walks in the Oesling.
This tour may be extended via CFL trail 4, Drauffelt - Kautenbach (16,2 km). Getting back to Clervaux can be done by walking along CFL trail 2, Clervaux – Munshausen – Drauffelt (8,4 km), in the opposite direction.
