Description
Day 1 - 315kms. Day 2 - 285kms
Warm up by climbing the Smeysberg Hill (8.3%) then catch the EuroVelo5 to Namur and Dinant. Cross the river at Givet and cycle in the forest and farmland then hitch on the W8 cycle path all the way to Neufchateau. More forest and countryside follows down to Arlon. Cross the border and pick up the 12, 14 and EuroVelo5 cycle paths through Luxembourg City, followed by cycle path 2 to Echernach and the hostel on the lake. Cycle path 3 follows the river for 30kms before a big climb and descent on the PC22 up to Wahlhausen and some stunning scenery until Wiltz. Cycle path 20 crosses the border to Bastogne and EuroVelo5 goes to Huy where the route descends the famous climb. The L127, W2 and W142 cycle paths bring the total kms to 550km when small, quiet roads complete the trip.
