Kayaking and Canoeing
Luxembourg’s numerous rivers and lakes provide excellent opportunities for kayaking and canoeing. The Sûre, Alzette, and Attert rivers offer calm sections perfect for beginners, and the Sûre is a flat touring river with no white water. Always check water levels before setting out.

The Mullerthal sandstone cliffs are protected. Climbing is allowed only on the Wanterbaach rocks in Berdorf, and only for members of a climbing association that belongs to UIAA or IFSC, who must show proof of membership and an ID card to nature-conservation officers. The Echternach youth hostel has an indoor climbing wall (14 m) for everyone else.
