Hike across a nature reserve and past an open air museum with the Auto-pédestre trail Rodange
Open
moderate
Distance 7.4 km
We cross the village and then follow the path towards the Tëtelbierg. We continue around the plateau and pass through forests, close by the railway museum Fond-de-Gras. We partly follow the national footpath "Sentier des Mineurs" before we return along the French border to Rodange.
Author’s recommendation
At the halfway point the trail leads past the open air museum "Minett Park Fond-de-Gras", which is always worth a visit
