Bettembourg walks

From the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, this route heads to Arlon, the capital of the Belgian province of Luxembourg, before passing through the villages of northern Gaume. Away from the main roads, it follows cycle paths, country lanes and tracks reserved for farm machinery, as well as a few rideable footpaths. There are several suggested stops to choose from, so you’ll need to pick a few to complete the stage in a single day!

This magnificent walk takes you on a journey of discovery through the former mining sites operated by the A.R.B.E.D between Esch-sur-Alzette, Schifflange and Kayl. It is offered by the CFL (Luxembourg's railway company) as part of its Hike & Rail range of hiking trails from station to station and has been slightly modified by us at the start and finish.

Set off to discover Luxembourg, its old town, its cobbled paths high up for changing panoramic views, cross a park surrounded by Vauban fortifications. Climb to the top of the Rock Bock and descend towards the old town.

From the Plateau des Trois Glands and the Vauban fortifications, descend into the lower part of the old town and escape via a panoramic lift. Then head to the historic centre from the Bock plateau and follow the corniche path to the Plateau du St-Esprit. Discover the Place de la Gelle Fra and then venture onto the footbridge suspended under the Adolphe Bridge. If you feel like it, head to the former ARBED building, now the headquarters of SpuerKeess. Finish your escape with a short tram ride to the Hamilius Forum, from where you can easily reach the Place d'Armes, the Grand Ducal Palace and Place Guillaume. The latter two squares offer a wide range of cafés and restaurants to suit all budgets.

Here’s an inline-skating route that takes you on a tour of the Kirchberg district and Luxembourg City. The route follows almost exclusively cycle paths. The only difficulties you may encounter along the way are cobbled sections, uneven surfaces in the parks and tactile paving for the visually impaired in front of each pedestrian crossing. I wouldn’t recommend this route for beginners. Start: Luxexpo tram stop, finish: Place de Paris

This circular walk starts from the village of Œutrange and takes you to the peaks of the Moselle hillside to the Notre-Dame du Chêne oratory.

À vingt minutes de Luxembourg-ville, baladez-vous en forêt et découvrez une reconstitution épatante d'un village celte, un point d'observation sur la zone humide de Neimillen, le Millekanal ainsi que le moulin de Schrassig.

The mines, the mines of yesterday, the iron mines... this is the main theme of this hike.Fond-de-Gras is the most informative site on this subject: it was the station where narrow-gauge trains converged to unload iron ore into standard-gauge wagons bound for the steelworks and blast furnaces of Pétange, Differdange and others in Belgium and Germany.

A bit of land art, small religious buildings, Roman qanats, a nature reserve... A circular route just 10 minutes from Luxembourg City.

A pleasant, family-friendly route, mainly through the forest. It follows the "Beerenweg" trail, which allows you to discover the flora and fauna of this wood.

A route through woods and meadows, from Koerich Castle to Saint-Celse Chapel in Bour, via Septfontaines Castle.

A walk beginning with a tour of the village of Kœnigsmacker, followed by its natural ponds. The route takes you across a meadow towards the village of Métrich, then through a wooded section to reach the village of Oudrenne, which you’ll explore via its backstreets. Finally, you’ll pass through the woodland once more, heading towards the Cité des Officiers, and from there, return to the starting point.

A route that allows you to explore our beautiful village and its surroundings. The first section takes you along the cycle path running alongside the Canner towards Elzange, then past the Cité des Officiers, before climbing up into the cool shade of the Bois de Kœnigsmacker, and finally descending towards Métrich and returning along the road to the village.

The route is suitable for children and pushchairs. A short, family-friendly walk that’s easy to access, with almost no elevation changes. Half in the village, half in the countryside, making it easy to explore the village at your own pace.

2nd stage of Extra Tour D of Mullerthal. You will mainly walk on wide paths, notably at the “Gatter”, the 500ha private forest of the Grand Ducal family accessible to the public since 2009. Bourglinster Castle will be your final point.

A lovely walk passing through Volkrange, Beuvange-sous-Saint-Michel and back via Nilvange along shaded paths. A few steep climbs for experienced walkers.
