Clervaux - Letz Breathe

 

Outdoor meetup agenda created to connect, learn, and have fun in nature across a variety of themes.

Throughout the year, the Tourist Center Clervaux organizes outdoor meetups that combine hiking with art, heritage, nature discovery, photography, and well-being. These gatherings are designed to be social, created to bring people together, connect locals and visitors, and share collective experiences in the great outdoors.

Our Themes:

Photography: Christophe Van Biesen, a Luxembourgish photographer specializing in landscapes, will take you through the most beautiful scenery around Clervaux to help you learn, improve, or find inspiration in photographic techniques.

Wild Herbs: Explore our countryside in search of wild herbs and medicinal plants with our expert Valérie Weber, and learn how to use them during a final workshop.

Artistic: Under development.

Pure Nature: Set off with our nature guides on the municipality's iconic trails. Learn more about the region's heritage, flora, and fauna.

River Life: The Our Valley is an ecosystem of great value. During this short hike, you will discover the Kalborn Mill and specifically the freshwater pearl mussel farm. Through this amazing mollusk, the entire life of the river is yours to explore.

Gourmet: What better way to discover the best of Clervaux than by combining hiking and gastronomy? After a short 5-6km hike, a local restaurant will introduce you to regional cuisine to be enjoyed together.

Torchlight Walks: What could be more magical than discovering Clervaux by night in a wintry atmosphere? During the weeks of Advent, join these torchlight hikes followed by a Glühwein tasting.

More dates will be added throughout the year.
