Hike to some small castle ruins on a hill on the Auto-pédestre trail Belvaux
Open
moderate
Distance 9.7 km
The trail leads over the Pakebierg, past the Tour Hertzienne, over the Lötschet to the Zolverknapp. Next to this castle ruin, you may enjoy a nice view. We go past the retirement home and follow partly the national footpath "Sentier du Sud" to the Gaalgebierg, which is a popular recreation area. We then arrive back at the starting point.
