Description

Cycle on well-developed bike paths between Esch / Belval and Luxembourg City and discover the Minett region

This summer offers a glimpse of what the future has in store for travelling between the university campus in Belval and Luxembourg City: the Belval-Luxembourg cycle express pathway transports you 27 kilometres to your destination, not by car, but on two wheels and with pedal power. It starts at the railway station in Belval; the terminus is the Glacis car park in the capital. Experience the contrast between the modern city of science where your journey starts and the nature conservation areas along the route that runs through former mining areas now reclaimed by nature.
