Local hiking trail - N4

A family friendly tour including a geologic highlight : the Champigon, Luxembourg's biggest mushroom!

On this short hiking trail you will reach one of the geological highlights of the region: the Champignon rock formation. This is a free-standing block of stone that is shaped like a mushroom. This shape was created naturally through weathering processes.

The hiking trail first leads through the forest where you go slightly up and down. The last part leads through an open landscape and back to the starting point. The tour is not stroller friendly as there are some stairs in the first half.
