1.5 hrs
Moderate
Departure from Luxembourg (Country)
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

Moderate
Departure from Bourscheid (Luxembourg) (Luxembourg (Country))
This walk takes us up above the meanders of the Sûre into the heart of the Éislek, following part of the Escapardenne Lee Trail, a hiking trail linking Ettelbruck to Kautenbach. Once we’ve reached Luxembourg’s largest fortified castle, we can walk around the next bend and head uphill to reach a remarkable viewpoint before descending towards Michelau station. If you’re short on time or energy, you can reach the station more directly by taking the Haute Sûre path down from the castle.
It was designed to be accessible by train (free in Luxembourg since March 2020).
