Echternach

Today's adventure is a trek in the Müllerthal region, known as "Little Switzerland" here in Luxembourg.

The 13½ km hike begins in Echternach, the oldest city in Luxembourg. Centrally located in the city is a 7th Century Abbey, the Basilica of St. Willibrord.

It's a quaint little town on the German border (though I still hear a fair amount of French around so I still don't know what language to speak when I interact with someone!) The main street is lined with outdoor terraced restaurants which beckoned welcomingly to me as I approached after the hike. Eventually I settled for a little tapas bar to recuperate and rest my legs, which served an Echternacher beer - I reckon even Harry won't have tried that before!Meer informatie
