The Eislek Gravel Luxembourg Course: A Two-Part Adventure

​

The Eislek Gravel Luxembourg course: an adventure in two parts

The Eislek Gravel circuit is 46.8 km long and is made up of two parts, the Luxembourg loop and the German loop. This route, to be ridden 1.5 times or 2.5 times depending on the event, will showcase all the qualities of a gravel racer, whether as a climber, rouleur or technician.

The Luxembourg Loop - Emotion and altitude in the heart of Vianden

From the outset, riders are immersed in an atmosphere steeped in history and challenge. Starting in the heart of the town of Vianden, the route begins with a spectacular and immersive cobbled climb, guiding participants up to Vianden Castle, guardian of the site for centuries. The start of the route immediately emphasises the authenticity of the adventure, where history and landscape merge.

​

Leaving the castle to the right, the route enters the Vianden forest for a gradual climb of around 10 kilometres to the highest point on the route at 510 metres.

​

The descent that follows alternates between tarmac sections and forest tracks, offering a sensation of speed and freedom. Once along the Our, the route invites you to a fast, fun ride along a winding path back down to Vianden. This 23.5km loop takes you across the finish line for the first time, before starting the German loop.
