Why ride here
Luxembourg’s northern uplands combine narrow river valleys with wooded ridges and castle settlements.
Scenery along the road
At Esch-sur-Sûre, the village and castle rock make the river bend immediately legible. The road then rises through wooded hills towards Wiltz before reaching the clustered buildings of Clervaux. Forest, valley floors and castle settlements supply the chapter’s changing scale.
Esch-sur-Sûre
The village sits inside a pronounced river bend, with houses below the castle rock.
Wiltz
The road climbs and falls through forested hills before reaching the valley town.
Clervaux
The castle and clustered buildings add a final human landmark among rounded wooded slopes.
