Mullerthal

The village of Mullerthal gave its name to the entire Mullerthal Region – Luxembourg's Little Switzerland. Located in the municipality of Waldbillig, it lies in the valley of the Black Ernz, surrounded by dense forests, impressive sandstone formations and picturesque streams. Its varied natural landscape makes this small village a popular starting point for hiking.

One of the best-known attractions nearby is the Schiessentümpel (Schéissendëmpel), a picturesque waterfall on the Black Ernz with its distinctive stone bridge. This landmark of the region is easily accessible on foot from Mullerthal and is one of Luxembourg's most popular photo spots.

The surrounding area also has an interesting history. In the forests above the village lie the remains of Heringerburg Castle, a former refuge once used by the Knights of Heringen. The ruins can be explored along the approximately 3.6 km long local circular hiking trail W2.

Mullerthal is also an important starting point for the Mullerthal Trail, which covers approximately 112 km in total. Routes 2 and 3 meet here, taking hikers through the region's characteristic rock formations, forests and valleys.

Further hiking opportunities include the local circular trails W6 and W8. The approximately 5.3 km long W6 leads to the Schiessentümpel waterfall before returning via the plateau between Christnach and Waldbillig. The approximately 12.5 km long W8 connects the Schiessentümpel waterfall with the Kalktuffquelle (tufa spring), passing through varied woodland and valley landscapes.

A central point of contact for visitors is the Heringer Millen Tourist Centre, located in a historic mill. Here, hikers can find information about the region and discover a selection of regional products.
