John Chalmers from Discover Luxembourg joined us over the phone this morning to talk about their annual event which is taking place this weekend in the capital.

The Discover Luxembourg (by foot) concept was initiated in 2008 as an annual one-day event in collaboration with the Ville de Luxembourg and the Luxembourg City Tourist Office (LCTO). Up to 100 teams of four follow directions in EN / FR and cover a route of between 6-8km, or so, to discover different aspects of Luxembourg city: culture, history, technology and gastronomy. Along the course the teams compete in challenges to win points, with prizes for the winning teams.

The event promotes local charity organisations with between €500 – €1,000 annually. This year donations will be made to Fondation Follerau Luxembourg.
