Remerschen: Haff Réimech, Lakes and Wine

Remerschen brings together a range of attractions for a stay: the Haff Réimech nature reserve, paths through vineyards, lakes and historic buildings. If you’re looking for hotels in Remerschen, these highlights can help you plan your trip: would you like to explore nature trails, spend time by the water, or combine nature with local history and wine culture?

Nature and trails at Haff Réimech

The Biodiversum Camille Gira is located on the edge of the nature reserve. Its interactive exhibitions span two floors and cover bird and nature conservation, biodiversity, and the historical and geological development of Haff Réimech and its region. This brings together nature-related topics with historical and geological perspectives under one roof.

The Biodiversum is also the starting point for the discovery trail around the ponds of Haff Réimech. Guided activities and walks are also available. The Haff Réimech nature and forest discovery trail begins at the car park near the Biodiversum nature and forest centre. It includes two easy routes, measuring 1.6 and 3.7 kilometres respectively. The routes therefore differ clearly in length; both are rated as easy.

The Grouf Trail offers panoramic views of the ponds in the nature reserve. The Circuit Auto-Pédestre Remerschen offers a different experience: it first passes through the nature reserve and then through vineyards. Along the way, you can enjoy views of the village of Remerschen and the Moselle Valley. This gives you the choice between a trail with pond panoramas and a route that passes through changing landscapes of protected areas and vineyards.

Lakes and seasonal activities

The Baggerweieren cover 25 hectares and invite visitors to swim, sunbathe and go for walks every year in spring and summer. This seasonal offering combines activities by the water with outdoor exercise. There is also a designated dog beach at the Remerschen lakes.

Church, architecture and art

The Church of St Sebastian in Remerschen brings together different historical traces. Its nave was rebuilt in 1766 by Hubertus von Banck, a master mason from Tyrol; the fortified tower is medieval. Remnants of Baroque paintings by Ignace Millim have been preserved in the choir. The building thus combines a medieval tower with a nave renovated in the 18th century and Baroque paintings.

The Valentiny Foundation in Remerschen offers a different perspective on architecture and art. It displays some of François Valentiny’s architectural and artistic creations. Together with the church, it creates a contrast between historic architecture and the work of an architect and artist.

Experience wine and explore the area

If you’d like to combine hiking trails and wine, you can take a break and enjoy a glass of wine at Domaine 64, among the vineyards, directly on the Remerschen Autopedestre between May and October. The Caves du Sud of Domaines Vinsmoselle offer something different: the team welcomes visitors to a bar for an introduction to Luxembourg’s wine culture.

The “Balade en calèche” carriage ride also explores the surrounding area. Its route passes through the natural landscape of Kuebendällchen to the vineyards of Felsberg, through the nature and culture of Remerschen, and back to the starting point in Wintrange. Remerschen, Al Schoul is the nearest bus stop for the Haff Réimech nature discovery trail.
