Turelbaach from Fuussekaul (12km)


Details
Dear hiking friends,
The youngest castle in Luxembourg, "Chateau de Turelbaach", was started to be built by a local guy from 1964 until 2007.
Although it is not possible to visit it inside, the castle has become so famous in the meantime that there is even an 8km Autopedestre trail built to pass by.
Unfortunately, 8km is very short, and most parts of that trail are just going over the fields, that's why I came up with a different idea:
The local trail "ES9" starts from Fussekaul, and at some point, we will switch over to a different path, which brings us to the castle, where we will take our lunch break at the lake.
The castle invites you to take a lot of beautiful photos from all directions, the break will be at least 30 minutes, and we can sit down for a picnic and share some snacks.
We're going to meet near the bus stop "Heiderscheid/Fussekaul" and start the hike around 10:00.
