Loop Trails in Luxembourg

There are 222 hikes in Luxembourg in our database that fit. They average 8.2 km and 179 m (587 ft) of ascent, with the longest running to 111 km.

That is 51 percent of the 434 routes we map in Luxembourg. They are shorter than the local average, 8.2 km against 16.4 km, which is what makes this a practical shortlist for a half day. They also climb less than the area average, 179 m (587 ft) against 293 m (961 ft), so they suit a recovery day or a group with mixed fitness.

Circular routes: park once, finish where you started, and never walk the same section twice. The mix is broad: 46 are rated easy and 4 are hard or harder, so there is something here whether you have two hours or a full day. A good share of them are loops, so you can park once and finish where you started.
