Scheidgen is a very small village not worth mentioning it. There is nothing to do except for walking. But Echternach is 7 km away and it takes about 6 minutes to get there by car.

The surroundings of Echternach are beautiful. We had a nice walk around the lake. There are many more walking possibilities and also for bicycles. The weather was not so good during our stay. And that is something which happens quite a lot in Luxembourg.

Nice town located just far enough from Echternach to be accessible yet not in the hustle and bustle. Unfortunately there is a tire plant on the way there and it smelled horrible whenever we passed it - I don't know how people can live there! Fortunately you can't smell it at all from Hotel Bon Repos. Scheidgen is also one of the entry points to Mullerthal Forest - great plus!

The town of Echternach itself is fine Location of hotel with restaurant below and cobbled streets with constant traffic and noise is located too far from a car park (10 mins walk) and you have to pay to park there! Staff were not very helpful except for 1 young girl who spoke German to us Lack of English spoken overall and prejudice in favour of French guests who recived better treatment and even had breakfast tables reserved for them. We had no allocated table and not enough rolls for 4 people No help when having to leave early- I had to ask for the reception to open up at 8.30 in order to leave the keys there(I speak French and German- otherwise nobody would have done this!)

A very small village with only Hotel Gruber so if you wanted more choice then maybe Echternach would suit you better; that said there were nice walks to be had and the hotel has a nice garden and facilities for table tennis and tennis for the energetic. there is a small terrace to the front of the hotel where drinks and food can be taken.

Interesting area, beautiful nature, many things to do. The place feels very laid back and somewhat sleepy. Visited in the middle of december, and had the trails almost to ourselves. Did two highly recommendable day hikes: "E1" (Echternach-Berdorf-Echternach, 12 km, 4 hrs), and Consdorf-Müllerthal-Consdorf, 9,3km, 3,5 hrs, leading through spectacular rocks and gorgeous forests. Easy walking, some up and down but nothing difficult or strenuous.

Echternach doesn't get enough credit for being an old attractive town. Agree that the winter season could be more lively but the main season is when the town wakes up and blossoms.Worth staying there on holidays, great camping and hiking/walking locations, great food and a beautiful lake. A great place to chill.

When we were there, the city was very quite, probably due to low season. but it was exactly what we are aiming for. E1 trail was a nice 12 km walk to warm up, with a nice view as well. Public transports are easily reachable and connect Echternach to most of the city for müllerthal hiking trails. The only thing we were surprised of was shops were closed for about 1.5hours during lunch time.

Our Hotel is in the middle of the town centre, just going around and walk about is great in and around Echternach, nearby all within less than one hour there is a lot of history to be seen, beautiful place to walk so enjoyable. Place not to be missed I love the castle in Vianden I came as a kid and have been visited almost every 10 years. Great the way it has been restored over time! I really beauty from a pile of stone to a remarkable Castle again. Well done to all people involved, it's pride never stop please I am sure there is always space to make it better, I am really happy of all the money I have contributed over the years to it, money well spend.

There are great restaurants, stellar walking and hiking trails and excellent sightseeing - all nearby! Beaufort Castle and Vianden Castle were both great pieces of history. We were at Vianden during the medieval festival, which draws incredible crowds, but it was still worth the 'salmon run' to see the castle and its finishings. We took a day and drove over the border into Germany to see Trier. It's not that far but setting aside a day is a good plan. Being that Echternach is the oldest city in Luxembourg and Trier is the oldest in Germany, we felt like it was a good fit!
