Two outings in three days! Look at us go!
We're trying to make a better effort to "do stuff" on the weekends now that we have a car and the weather is improving, fitting in some short outings after Saturday church band practice and/or Sunday church. We finally made it out to Little Switzerland today, a lovely forested area in the northeast of Luxembourg.
I've never been to Normal Switzerland, but this particular area of Luxembourg has some similar rock formations and topography. From the half-hearted Wikipedia page, I get the sense that the comparison may be a bit of a stretch. (Perhaps it was written by a Swiss person.)
Nonetheless, this was a breathtaking spot, and we're already making plans to go back soon to do a proper hike, armed with our freshly purchased trail map.

| Our friend gave us the tip to park at Camping Martbusch, north of Berdorf. I'm only mentioning it because it was difficult to find this specific sort of info online. |
We wandered in the general direction of the forest and found a viewpoint nearby.
 |
| not bad |
From there it was easy to see where to head down between the rocks.
 |
| There's a metal ladder down there to the next level here. Not stroller-friendly. |
 |
| The rocks soon opened to forest and a network of trails. |
 |
| We stuck close to the rocks near where we climbed down and did some general exploring. |
 |
| There were a couple "holes" like this, and we saw several serious hikers go down with headlamps. We just took a quick peek with the flashlights on our phones. |
 |
| lots of great spots for kid climbing |
 |
| snack break |
 |
| Regular Switzerland must be beautiful! |
I'm still quite often surprised by what this tiny adopted country of ours has to offer.
