Wellbeing-hiking tour between the holidays in Luxembourg-City
If you’re looking for a sportive activity in nature between Christmas and New Year’s Eve, why not consider participating in our wellbeing-hiking tour? On Sunday 27th of December takes place the third edition of the traditional wellbeing hiking tour, with a vegetarian dinner to finish the day.
This year’s one-day hike will take place in the capital city of Luxembourg. Hiking in Luxembourg-city, you may wonder? But of course, because the capital is surrounded by forests and nature. The medium-difficult day tour starts in one of the oldest districts of the city - the Pfaffenthal with its youth hostel. At the beginning of the hike, the participants will be guided over the well-known youth hostels trail until Dommeldange. From here we continue towards Senningerberg with its green surroundings looking transformed during winter. The highlight of the tour: during the last few kilometres, we will travel by tram, before returning back to Pfaffenthal. The day tour is divided into two different groups: the gourmet group (speed approx. 4km/hour) will hike about 22 km, while the sporty group will have a tour of about 27 km (speed approx. 5km/hour) on the agenda. The tour is all about ‘wellbeing’, as hiking is not only a very good endurance training, but it also combines the sportive activity with unforgettable nature experiences and therefore has a positive effect on our mind.
After the hike and to end the day on a culinary note, the youth hostel’s kitchen team awaits the participants with a delicious vegetarian dinner. And those who have not yet redeemed their accommodation voucher from the Ministry may reserve a bed at the youth hostel in advance. So why not turn the hike into a weekend trip, because the capital has so much to offer.
Please register in advance, the places are limited.
Date:
Sunday, 27th December 2019 including a wellbeing-dinner at the youth hostel. Shower facilities on site. Don’t forget to bring your own snacks and refreshments for the hike.

Mini-koala climbing course for children aged 5 – 7 (14:15 – 15:15) in Echternach
The animation team of the youth hostel Echternach offers two climbing courses at two different times for the 5 - 7 year old little climbing fans. Between 7th January and 1st April, the climbing course for the children takes place on the 14-metre high indoor climbing wall. This twelve-week programme is organised every Thursday between 2:15 and 3:15 pm at the Echternach youth hostel and is aimed at young beginners or those who already have some experience.
Children start climbing at a very young age and usually do it intuitively. Climbing not only helps to develop the self-perception and self-confidence of children but also helps them to assess their own limits. Children also learn through failure which is another important point in their development. So why not register your little ones in a climbing course and thus promote their sporting activities?
