The Éislek region

Welcome to the Luxembourg Ardennes, the region of breathtaking nature parks and wind turbines!

The LEADER bureau Éislek is located in the former town hall of Munshausen and is also entrusted with the “Europe Direct Éislek” contact point.

55 LEADER members, including an inter-municipal syndicate (Sicler), two nature parks, 17 municipalities, 2 regional social agencies, 2 lycées and 31 associations from the fields of tourism, social affairs, youth, culture, nature and environmental protection, the labour market and employment as well as agriculture and forestry developed inspiring and pioneering projects, including "Qualitéwanderregioun", "Valeurs des Parcs: Experience and enjoy regionality in the Éislek" and the "Youth Office".

Despite the distance between and within the cantons of Wiltz, Clervaux and Vianden (with 2 municipalities in the canton of Diekirch), there are common features that unite: they all belong to the "Éislek" region and are part of the Ardennes. The LEADER region covers approximately 28% of the country.

The LEADER region Éislek currently includes 17 municipalities: Bauschleiden, Bourscheid, Clervaux, Esch-Sauer, Feulen, Goesdorf, Kiischpelt, Stauseegemeinde, Hosingen, Putscheid, Tandel, Ulflingen, Vianden, Weiswampach, Wiltz, Wintger and Winseler.
