BIKING

Discover southern Luxemburg

The Red Rock Challenge 2025 departs from Belval (for the most of the races) and connects, like every year, the region’s major tourist points such as Little Italy in Dudelange, the National Mining and Iron Museum in Rumelange, the Information Centre Ellergronn in Esch/Alzette and the Industrial and Railway Park Fond-de-Gras in Differdange/Pétange, which will act as relay points and water stops along the route.

The various tracks will lead the participants through the natural reserves of Haard, Hesselbierg, Steebierg, Lalléngerbierg and Giele Botter and come together at the Lycée Belval, where a festive gathering awaits participants at the end of the competitions.

You also will find out some musical animation, food & drinks, cloakroom & warm shower, bike wash (depends on the race you will participate).

So enjoy and relax.

For this edition, we will propose 3 gravel routes with the following distances:

  • Gravel 32 km > 390 meters elevation gain
  • Gravel 65 km > 780 meters elevation gain
  • Gravel 95 km > 1.160 meters elevation gain
