Youth hostels - More than a bed.

Visit the second city of Luxembourg which offers a diverse set of activities: touristic, cultural, sports and discovery of the paths crossing the Terres Rouges. The “Minette”, marked by its past linked to the steel industry, combines it now with innovation and multiculturalism. Esch-sur-Alzette is easily accessible by train from the city of Luxembourg and the Grande Région and is equipped with a modern youth hostel built in 2017. From the hostel, you can go shopping in the country's longest shopping street or have a good time in the “Galgenberg” recreation area. Would you like to take a walk in nature? You can do just that at the Nature Centre and Ellergronn Forest, which has a museum with exhibitions on the theme of nature. Ten minutes by bus from the city, the Belval blast furnaces offer a glimpse into the iron ore industry that dominated Luxembourg's economy over 100 years ago. To make your stay easier, the hostel is conveniently located near the Esch-sur-Alzette railway station with frequent train connections. 

Do you wish to visit the wine-growing picturesque village and fully enjoy the nice landscapes? The youth hostel in Remerschen is perfectly located for a walk around the vineyards or to educate oneself at the nature conservation centre Biodiversum in the nature reserve “Haff Réimech”. You’ll be informed about the history of the nature reserve and the submarine world of the area. If you enjoy hiking or cycling, you will find what you are looking for on the various trails nearby. Located in the border triangle of Luxembourg, Germany and France, Remerschen charms visitors with its lakes and a whole range of activities. Don't hesitate to pay a visit and recharge your batteries in the fresh air of the Moselle. From Luxembourg station, an RGTR bus will take you to the door of the hostel.
