Geocache Description:


Often referred to as Luxembourg’s Little Switzerland, the Mullerthal Region - or Mëllerdall in Luxembourgish – owes its name to its hilly landscape reminiscent of Switzerland.The region is above all a unique biotope characterized by sandstone rock formations which are as beguiling as surprising. It is the unique composition of the rock and soil erosion that have contributed to the creation of this landscape so typical for the region. Today, Luxembourg's Little Switzerland attracts tourists from near and far away.

 

This is a revival geocache of the famous "Little Switzerland in Luxemburg" series which has been archived. It is part of a series of 4 T5 abseiling caches and 1 bonus cache. In each cache container you will find some information for the bonus cache.

The container of today's "Eiger" cache has not the same position than the old one.

Please consider the following rules:

  • In order to avoid accidents, please use the appropriate material to decent on a rope
  • Only do this cache if you know how to use your climbing material
  • Don't take any risk if you are unsure
  • A 40 m rope for single rope descent is largely enough (maybe 50 m as double rope is already enough)
  • Always wear a helmet
  • Everything you do is on your own responsibility!



When you see two trees on the top of the rock with mark like on the photo, you have to have to go down exactly between them.
You find the cache while standing, not hanging!

Have fun, enjoy these great rocks and the nature around.
