Tour am Minett - Grand Tour du Luxembourg

Daniel O.

Description
Scenic

100 kilometres of varied routes and roads – lush and interesting nature reserves – UNESCO Biosphere-label approved region – a great cultural programme – a melting pot of history, cultures and societies; let yourself be enchanted by the “Grand Tour” and its Loop in the Minett Region.

The Minett region also has some highlights on offer for adventurous drivers: Not only industry and history, but also plenty of variety and beautiful vistas. Take a journey of discovery through almost 100 years of some of the most important events in the Grand Duchy and discover how a steadily growing industry turned picturesque landscapes into what closely resembled a lunar landscape - and how nature reclaimed what was stolen from it just a few years ago and turned these landscapes into beautiful nature reserves, teeming with life.

Visit the beautiful countryside with towns and cities like Reckange-sur-Mess, Frisange or the highlight Bettembourg with its animal parc "Parc Merveilleux", or discover the industrial heartland with cities like Differdange, Dudelange or Esch-sur-Alzette and the incredible former industrial site of Esch-Belval.

THE ROUTE TAKES YOU THROUGH:

Dudelange – Bettembourg – Fristange – Roeser – Crauthem – Peppange – Huncherange – Bergem – Pontpierre - Wickrange - Ehlange - Reckange-sur-Mess - Roedgen - Leudelange - Dippach - Käerjeng - Niedercorn - Differdange - Lasauvage - Obercorn - Belvaux - Belval - Esch-sur-Alzette - Rumelange - Kayl
