Luggage transport

Would you like to hike without luggage? Then book the luggage transport service offered by Visit Luxembourg in cooperation with Voyages Emile Weber. You can book between 1.4. and 30.11. here: www.movewecarry.lu

From the hotel to the next youth hostel, from the campsite to the holiday flat - your luggage travels ahead of you and awaits you on arrival after each stage.

Planning and equipment

The ideal tool for planning hiking tours is the ‘Geoportail’ of the land registry office in Luxembourg. Here you can view virtually all hiking trails, including the youth hostel trails, directly on a topographical map and download GPS files.
