Unauthorized motorhome parking at Kockelscheuer raises concerns

Between 20 and 30 campers are said to be parked daily on a parking lot in Kockelscheuer. Because there are no toilets, some leave their waste in the adjacent forest. A local resident, Philipp, reported the issue to the city, but no measures have been taken yet. The city of Luxembourg acknowledges the problem and is considering options, including height restrictions or a camper ban.

A car towing a caravan caught fire on the A3 motorway near the France-Luxembourg border on Wednesday afternoon. Firefighters arrived around 4:20 p.m., and the emergency lane was blocked. No injuries were reported, according to CGDIS.

Visit Luxembourg has published a list of campsites and motorhome stops across the country. Among them is the newly reopened Camping Toodlermillen on the Sauer river, now managed by youth organisations after a two-year closure. The site offers 120 pitches for tents and caravans, three for motorhomes, and zones for families and youth groups. In the Müllerthal region, Camping Martbusch provides 200 pitches, including spaces for motorhomes and camper vans, plus rental lodges. Near Luxembourg City, Camping Kockelscheuer has 161 pitches for tents, caravans, and motorhomes, with the city centre reachable by bus or tram.

The bistro at the Route du Vin campsite in Grevenmacher, closed for several weeks due to illness, may reopen on Friday. The Syndicat d'initiative has found an operator for the rest of the season — the owner of a restaurant in Mertert. Talks are also underway for the bistro at Kulturhuef, closed since December, but no reopening date has been set.

Police in Diekirch, Luxembourg, arrested a man who entered a campervan through the roof. He is also suspected of two other thefts.

The renovated Toodlermillen Family & Youth Camp in Tadler has opened, purchased by the state after the Keiser family put it up for sale. The 120-pitch site includes areas for tents, motorhomes, and caravans, plus a dedicated Youth Camp for groups. Managed by AJL and SNJ, it remains open to the public and targets families, youth groups, and scouts.
