Luxembourg Kiltwalk 2023 (42 km)

Time to dust off your kilts as the most eagerly awaited charity event of the year is approaching: the Lux Kiltwalk 2023.

The Kiltwalk is one of the largest charity fundraisers in the UK and has been a tradition in Luxembourg uninterruptedly since 2018. This year we will be therefore celebrating its 6th edition.

The organisers are collecting donations for Pancreatic Cancer Action.

We will gather in front of the PYG (Clausen) by 9 AM on September the 30th (Saturday) and walk of the way to the BOSS (Mersch) and back.

Roughly speaking, this wee walk covers the distance of a marathon but it is entirely flat. Click on the links to obtain the GPX file (merely illustrative, as certain segments of the cycling lane may be closed) and the elevation profile in 2D and 3D. Should you find the full distance a bit challenging, you can consider walking one half and taking the train for the other leg.

Bring comfortable shoes, plenty of water and some snacks (you should be able to eat and drink a little something at the Boss). Participants are strongly encouraged to wear kilts or some other tartan-resembling fabric.

Those who complete the challenge will be triumphantly received with bagpipes and drums and their effort rewarded with a well deserved pint and some food back at the Pyg.

A raffle with fantastic prizes will be followed by the regular quiz and karaoke.

Save the date and see you all there!
