Piste cyclable 16 Ettelbruck - Bettendorf

Little Sunday afternoon cycling trip. Starting at Ettelbruck railway station and following the PS 16 to Bettendorf. Then up hill to Härebierg, where important military center of the Luxembourgish army is located, Caserne Grand-Duc Jean, and down to Diekirch, where I couldn't resist the call of the Military Museum.




I didn't bother to take the usual photos of a bicycle trip, but couple of views were too beautiful. Here U R:

Bettendorf


Gilsdorf seen from Härebierg


Galgebierg panoramic view


Diekirch from above


Diekirch hosts one of the best Military museums of the region. I have been there only once before. It is open every day until 6 PM and entrance cost 5 euros.
