Getting to Beaufort by public transport

The exhibition of the Mëllerdall UNESCO Global Geopark shows the creation and development of the special geological, natural and cultural heritage of the region. It tells of the formation of the geological subsoil as a seabed and of the shaping of the landscape after the seabed had become solid land. It takes up the human use of natural resources from the Stone Age to modern times and explains the development of the cultural landscape with its multitude of ecological niches. Free entrance!

Immerse yourself in the history of the medieval ruins and discover how the last occupant lived in the 17th century castle. In the beautiful countryside of Beaufort, you can visit not one but two castles. Not far from an idyllic little lake, an impressive medieval castle towers over the landscape. It was built between 1050 and 1650. Following major restoration works, the imposing ruins were opened to the public as early as 1932 and today are considered a historic monument. Just around the corner, you will find a residence dating from the 17th century. Its fascinating interiors bring the magic of the past back to life. The 17th century residence can only be visited as part of a guided tour, which ends with a tasting of the famous Cassero liqueur (blackcurrant liqueur). Guided tours: The site is open daily from mid-March to mid-November. Last admission to the castle grounds is at 5:00 p.m. The medieval ruins can be visited with or without a guide. The 17th century residence can only be visited with a guide. The languages and times of the guided tours of the 17th century residence are regularly published on the castle’s social media channels: @beaufortcastles on Instagram and @Beaufort Castle on Facebook.

The educational path leads over about 5 km through the valleys of the Haupeschbach and the Halerbach. It is marked with a fossil oyster ("devil's claw"). It reminds us that the stones in the region were formed in a sea a long time ago. The valley is an extremely valuable area: it is a geotope of the Mëllerdall UNESCO Global Geopark, part of the European Natura 2000 network of protected areas, and has been on the list of national monuments since 1938. The path goes through the narrow valley in Luxembourg sandstone. At 14 interactive stations, one receives information about water: What does water have to do with the formation of sandstone? What processes can be observed today in a stream? What animals and plants live by the stream? Where does the water come from and how does man use the water and its power? Toward the end of the hike, you will pass by Beaufort Castle. The castle’s famous liqueurs are produced there, including Cassero, Cassero-Kirsch, Framboise des Bois, and Vieille Prune. The liqueurs are available for purchase on site. Hiking: Route 3 Mullerthal Trail, W5 (10.1 km), Geo-Pad Haupeschbach-Halerbach (4.9 km) Nearest bus stop: Beaufort, Härewiss (1.5 km)

The circular route starts at the church in Beaufort and goes along the castles to the Thuillier kiosk, where you can take a relaxing break in the peaceful nature. The sections before and after the castles are quite steep.

This easy hike starts on the Route de Reisdorf and leads over an open plain northeast of Beaufort. The route is almost entirely paved (only 100 meters consist of a grassy path) and offers wide views of Berdorf and the local Aquatower. In clear weather, the radio towers at Junglinster to the south can be seen. The path crosses a busy road and runs for about 250 m along a busy road. There are various refreshment options along the route. A detour to the Tourist Information at Camping Beaufort is also possible.
