Ultratrail in Luxembourg's 'little Switzerland' | #Tourism #Europe | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it

In one month, on September 9, the second edition of the Ultratrail in Müllerthal will take place. The race will start at 12.05am at the Place du Marché in Echternach.

 

For the second time this year, Luxembourg's so called 'little Switzerland' welcomes trail runners from around the world to participate in the race and power through three different trails -- the normal trail of 38 kilometres, the long trail of 75 kilometres and the ultra trail which is 112 kilometres.

 

Last year's competition had 250 participants, including the winners of the Ultratrail, Gary Assel and Claire Schweigen.

 

The courses are on very uneven surfaces and pushes the participants to their limits, at the same time as blending into a beautiful setting and giving you an opportunity to discover a part of Luxembourg that isn't as frequently visited as others.
