Description

Hike a section of the European long-distance path network on the GR 570

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