Les Rives de Clausen

Discover the old town of Luxembourg with tickets to the iconic City Train. Navigate the most popular districts and come across ancient landmarks. Listen to insightful commentary on board and gaze at stunning views of the historic center. Thanks to the route taken by the City Train, formerly known as the Petrusse Express, travelers aboard the city train depart from the old town to the historic centre of Luxembourg City. The 45-minute journey starts at the Montée de Clausen, more precisely at the Um Bock stop, and then heads towards the Grund area and Rives de Clausen, the Plateau du Rham and back to its starting point. The Rives de Clausen form a district of bars and restaurants, established on the site of the former Luxembourg beer brewery “Mousel”. Situated along the Alzette river, the Rives de Clausen appeal to a wide variety of tastes and attract a very cosmopolitan public, which is typical for Luxembourg. The Rives de Clausen are also part of a larger plan to enhance the suburbs of the former fortress. The Rham Plateau proudly overlooks three sides of the Alzette valley and offers a stunning view of the old city of Luxembourg. It has been an integral part of Luxembourg’s fortifications since the 15th century and was later expanded by Vauban with four imposing military barracks, currently used as modern and comfortable housing for seniors. You can make a stop for a few minutes while waiting for the next train.

After picking up the bikes at our sightseeing.lu store, you will discover the most beautiful places of the capital in a single bike trip. Move around on our latest generation e-bikes to get from one place to another without getting too tired, because this tour doesn't include any hills... or almost none! Everything is done by elevator or by funicular. From the city center, you will be directly immersed in the green heart of the city, the Pétrusse Valley with its numerous possibilities to relax in a green area. From there you will be directed to the Grund where you will take the elevator to the Plateau du St. Esprit and the Judicial City - Cité Judiciaire. From here, you can ride along the Grand Ducal Palace to the historical center and its Herb Market. Continue to the Pfaffenthal until you reach the funicular that will take you to Kirchberg. You will get out at the foot of the European institutions. Even this imposing alley has its own little park, which you can cross by bike, and then discover the most important buildings of the Luxembourg financial center. Once you've passed through, you'll go back down to the Pfaffenthal to take the panoramic elevator to the gardens of the Pescatore Foundation. From there you will reach the city park and the Kinnekswiss, which announces the end of our e-bike tour through the capital.
