Discover Remich: Moselle, Vineyards and Trails

Remich combines the Moselle landscape, vineyards, and traces of history with a wide range of opportunities for active and relaxing holidays. The town’s origins date back to Roman times. Today, Remich is characterised by features including its three-kilometre-long Moselle promenade, wooded areas, and an amphitheatre-like panorama.

Historical Discoveries in the Town

A walk through Remich also reveals some noteworthy details. Rue Neuve features narrow cellar entrances, recalling the town’s distinctive architectural character. The parish church has an old Romanesque tower and a Romanesque façade with Baroque additions. The church tower is part of Luxembourg’s cultural heritage and offers panoramic views of Remich. Anyone interested in the town’s history can also visit the Sankt-Nikolaus Gate, which was built in honour of the patron saint of fishermen and boatmen.

Another special experience is offered by the Caves St Martin. Guided tours are available through underground galleries that were excavated over a length of almost one kilometre. This allows visitors to discover the wine town not only through its landscape but also through its underground spaces. For a culturally focused day plan, these impressions complement the town’s historic buildings.

Promenade, Vineyards and Hiking Trails

The Moselle promenade stretches for 3 kilometres beneath lime and cherry trees. It provides a clear route for anyone who enjoys spending time on a longer walk along the river. The Remich accessible walking trail runs with views of the Moselle across the Esplanade, through small streets, and through Jeannot-Belling Park. The path is wide enough for walking and rolling and has no major inclines or physical obstacles. The walking and hiking trails in Remich start at the car park beneath the Moselle bridge, in front of the tourist information office.

Those who prefer a tour through the wine-growing landscape can choose the Wéngerts Tour. It leads through Remich’s vineyards up to the viewing platform on the Scheierbierg, which offers beautiful views over the town. The Remich Auto-Pédestre hiking trail connects old roads and vineyards with the national hiking trail “Sentier de la Moselle” as far as Goldberg. On the return journey, it passes through the Remich Forest. The Jangeli cycle path (PC 11) provides another active connection, linking Remich (PC 3) with Mondorf.

Boat Trips and Regional Experiences

Several excursion boats operate on the Moselle, offering boat trips that allow you to experience the tri-border region from the river. Those who prefer to stay on land will find a modern 18-hole miniature golf course in Remich. The outdoor swimming pool has a heated pool and swimming lanes measuring Olympic length. Boat trips, miniature golf, and swimming therefore offer a range of different ways to spend the day.

Wine hikes are also part of the regional experience. A number of these tours lead from Remich via Greiveldange to Ahn and include a wine tasting at a local winegrower’s estate. The wine hikes can be undertaken independently, provided that a tasting is booked; alternatively, a guide can be hired. If you are travelling with people who have different interests, this allows you to choose between a self-planned tour and a guided option.

Choose Remich as Your Place to Stay

When looking for a holiday apartment in Remich, it is worth deciding in advance what you would like to focus on during your holiday.
