Mountain Bike Tour & Train 1900

Discover Minett Park on a guided mountain bike tour!

With our experienced guide, discover the most beautiful corners of Minett Park, including Titelberg, Fond-de-Gras and Lasauvage. Travel approximately 30 km and immerse yourself in the fascinating story of the Count of Saintignon and the wild woman. This tour takes you back in time, introducing you to the captivating legends and tales of the region.

The walk will take place mainly on forest tracks and technical paths adapted to the level of the group. A few asphalt sections are unavoidable, but there’s something for everyone. However, this tour is suitable for lightly trained mountain bikers who can keep up a moderate pace and take on a few uphill challenges that will test the less experienced. This is not a competition, and there will be plenty of breaks for photos and stories.

Weather permitting, we’ll take a refreshing break at the end of the ride at the buffet at the Fond-de-Gras station (at own expense). The return journey to Pétange is on a 1900 train with one of its famous steam locomotives.

Don’t miss this opportunity to discover Minett Park in a unique and exciting way! Book your place now for this unforgettable guided mountain bike tour.
