Description

The Alzette cycle path (PC 15) links the Centre circuit (PC1) in Dommeldange and the Sûre Moyenne cycle path (PC16) in Ettelbruck, passing through Steinsel, Lintgen and Mersch.

The Luxembourg-Ettelbruck railway line runs along the entire route of the path, so that you can combine your excursion with train journeys, or even return by train to Luxembourg city.  From Mersch, halfway along the route, a ride towards the idyllic valley of the Eisch with its many castles and fortresses is particularly worthwhile.

Follow the capital’s river to the gates of the Luxembourg Ardennes, crossing lovely rural landscapes with their meadows and orchards, punctuated here and there by castles, the most imposing of which is Colmar-Berg, currently the residence of the Grand Ducal family. Continuing on the CR345, it passed through Welsdorf, Schirenermillen, Birtrange and Grentzingen to finally arrive in Ettelbrueck. The old route of the PC15, combined with the section opened in 2009, makes it possible to carry out a nice bicycle ride in a loop of about ten kilometres between Colmar-Berg and Ettelbrueck.
