Attert Cycle Path (PC 12)

The cycle route de l'Attert (PC 12) starts in Pétange, and follows the tracks of the old Attert line, the railway line that used to connect Pétange to Ettelbruck.The Attert cycle route is the perfect trail for family expeditions. This exciting group adventure starts in Pétange and then follows the traces of the old Attert line, the rail branch that used to connect Pétange and Ettelbruck, for most of the tour. Now you are literally driving on the border between Belgium and Luxembourg. Soon the touring adventure takes a new turn. Follow the trail of the famous Charly, an old narrow-gauge railway in the direction of the sept châteaux (seven castles). Now the intrepid cyclists pass through a valley of mighty fortresses and castles - this is where the nobles of old built their fortresses, such as the castle fortress of Hollenfels or the baroque castle of Ansembourg. Further on, things take a surprising and interesting turn as you pass another mighty man-made structure - a 700 meter long illuminated tunnel through the Luxembourg sandstone.

Very nice railway cycle path.

I love this route. It is so varied, with many big and small highlights
