Schiessentümpel Waterfall and Stone Bridge

Highlight • Waterfall

Another iconic highlight of the region. It is not a high waterfall by any means, yet with the combination of the bridge and the flora it makes for a truly wonderful place.

July 6, 2022,Müllertal W7 Start in Heringer Millen

The W7 round was very nice and, according to the local tourism information center, a new circular route. Good excellent. But the second third of the way is totally unspectacular and sometimes very boring to walk on wide paths. It would have been better to only hike the beginning and end... that would have been enough to see all the …

For my first time hiking in Luxembourg, it was a delightful, entertaining hike with plenty of variety and sights. It's also a dream for all dogs, as there are plenty of streams and regular access to them. I'm very impressed, and it certainly won't be the last time I've been there.

Picturesque hike through the heart of the Mullerthal region. This hike begins with a steep climb to a wooden cottage in the forest. We continue on narrow paths along numerous rock formations and bubbling streams. The second half of the hike offers one highlight after the other. After a descent through the forest, you reach the Black Ernz and pass …

Unfortunately, there are currently many construction sites and detours for hikers and cars. And it is also the cars that can be heard constantly at the beginning of the path, spoiling the enjoyment of the hike

Some beautiful parts are missing. Not accessible due to damage from bad weather in recent weeks. You will be redirected well.

September 29, 2024,Müllertal : Runde Schiessentümpel - Kalktuffquelle - Ripsmuer

Once again I find myself in Luxembourg's Switzerland, this time in the valley of the Black Ernz. Right at the beginning it goes up, first on a path, then on a dirt road running parallel to the road. Some beautiful rock formations, interesting routes and sometimes the 'typical' stairs along the way. Be careful, because of the beginning of autumn …

July 22, 2025,🇱🇺 22/7 W7 Müllertal van aan Heringer Millen via Schießenstümpel

A picturesque hike through the heart of the Mullerthal region.

This hike begins with the most challenging part of the route, a steep climb to a wooden hut in the forest. It then continues along narrow paths past some of the area's characteristic rock formations and streams.
