Description

Hike on a part of the European long-distance trail, path GR 570

On this section of the European hiking trail, which leads from the Netherlands to the Mediterranean, you walk through the old industrial towns and villages of Pétange, Differdange, Oberkorn and Lasauvage and across the French border. On the way you will meet several silent witnesses of the mining past and learn more about the turbulent history of Luxembourg's industry. The old open-cast mining areas through which you walk are now nature reserves, and the entire region bears the UNESCO label "Man and the Biosphere".
