The cross-border rock path 2 entices with many viewpoints, soft forest paths, narrow trails past bizarrely shaped sandstone rocks and valuable cultural assets.
"Luxembourg Sandstone Rocks"
The Bollendorf plateau on the German side, the Luxembourg Berfort plateau, and the deeply cut Sauer valley as connecting element make this route an unforgettable experience. The rock sceneries offer countless scenes and colors. On the Luxembourg side, this landscape is called "Little Luxembourg Switzerland".
Highlights along the way:
- Picturesque Bollendorf with Sauerstaden, castle and Weilerbach palace
- Roman villa in Bollendorf
- Waterfall with tufa cave at the Tränenlay
- Bizarre rock landscapes and spectacular rock worlds, like the Green Hell
- Historic town center of Beaufort with Beaufort castle
Note: A highlight of this route is the "Mandrack" passage (Manuel Andrack). The passage between the rocks of Kalekopp is only about 40 cm wide at shoulder height. It is best to decide before the start whether you dare to go through here. There is no detour; it’s only forward or back, and we don’t want anyone to get stuck. So best take off your backpack and pass sideways!
