Clervaux
Clervaux is a small Ardennes town surrounded by wooded hills and best known for Clervaux Castle and The Family of Man photographic exhibition curated by Edward Steichen. The town also played an important role during the Battle of the Bulge in the Second World War.
Echternach
Echternach, Luxembourg's oldest town, is known for its abbey, historic centre and relaxed atmosphere near the German border. The town hosts the UNESCO-recognised Dancing Procession each year and also serves as a gateway to the Müllerthal hiking region.
