Emotion and altitude in the Heart of Vianden
From the start, riders are immersed in an atmosphere steeped in history and challenge. From the heart of Vianden, the circuit begins with a spectacular and immersive cobbled climb, guiding participants up to Vianden Castle, guardian of the area for centuries. This opening section immediately emphasizes the authenticity of the adventure, where history and landscape intertwine.
Leaving the castle on the right, the route enters the Vianden forest for a gradual ascent over approximately 10 kilometers to the highest point of the course at 510 meters elevation.
The descent that follows alternates between paved sections and forest trails, offering a sensation of speed and freedom. Once along the Our River, the course invites a playful and fast moment on a winding trail, descending back toward Vianden. This 23.5 km loop takes you across the finish line for the first time before starting the German loop.
