Developing tourism activities is a central topic for the LAG. In close cooperation, innovative projects such as the Mullerthal Trail, a hiking trail through the region, the concept for a regional cycle path network and the "Tourist Info 2.0" projects were initiated. In addition, economic development projects such as the Mëllerdaller producers, the marketing of "Holz vun hei" and the "CIRCLE" project on the circular economy are trendsetting. Integrative social programmes are not neglected in the region either. The LAG is particularly proud of "Super Senior", a successful tutoring project run by seniors for schoolchildren that has also been well received outside the LEADER region.
