Started the day from Niederdoven where Charles &. Marie-Paul live, going northeast of Luxembourgh City to an area known as Little Switzerland where it is very hilly and heavily forested with many hiking trails for those who like climbing.
From there we proceeded to the Echternacht Basilica and former monastery (now a Catholic High School) that was not far from the Little Switzerland area. From Echternacht we proceeded to one of the earliest castles in Luxembourg called Vianden Castle.
On the way back to Niederdonven we stopped to see his family run farm service business operated by Charles' brother Marcel (www.ruppert.lu). The day ended back at the home Charles and Marie-Paul, where their son Jean and his wife Beatrice joined us for dinner.
