Faubourgen Bëscher: Ënneschte-Leidelenger-Beetebuerger-Kockelscheuer (20 km hike)

Gréngewald in the north-east and Bambësch in the north-west are the two largest contiguous woods around Luxembourg town. But what about the southern side, are not there any forests in the area?

Well, this is what we are set to determine in another of our reconnaissance expeditions two days after the little birds get married. Starting from Merl, we will head south-west to explore, clockwise, in the following order: Ënneschte Bësch, Leidelenger Bësch, Beetebuerger Bësch and the Kockelscheuer.

What are we going to find down there? No clue, but it should be civilised enough for our standards, I guess. In any case, this one is pretty flat.

However, a loop it is not: We start from the community gardens in Merl (off rue des Celtes) and end up at the Kockelscheuer P&R, both well served by public transport. If you come by car, you are probably better off by leaving it at the destination point.
