October is coming and with it the apple picking in Luxembourg’s orchards! Tammy compotes, pies or crumbles are yours, but before eating, let’s have some fun and pick them yourself !
Apple picking
The orchards of Steinsel open their doors to the public on the weekends of October 1 – 2 and 8 – 9 as well as on Thursdays from 2 to 6 pm.
Get your boots ready, take bags or crates to store your harvest, and be ready to run between the apple trees while picking apples. There are many varieties to choose from including Elstar, Gala, Cox, Jonagold, Marnika
By-products are also available for purchase, such as apple chips and apple juice. On site, you can also eat and drink to regain your strength after picking.
