F&S Luxembourg 10 years - Hike in Müllerthal

Despite heavy rain in the early morning of 9 May 2010, 12 hikers met up in Consdorf for Friskis&Svettis' Müllerthal Trail hike. Fortuantely, the rain stopped as the group took of and they didn't have one single drop during the entire walk.

Maria Österblad, F&S Nordic Walking Instructors said: "The forest with the fresh green leaves is at this moment of the spring to its best. After 3,5 hours walk and countless of stairs... and some climbing under and over trees hit by the storm, we arrived back in Consdorf."
