Bonnal, Um Bommel

The water that always accompanies you on this route will catch your eye – from the Insenborn beach and especially from the Belvédère Burfelt viewing platform. Curiosity and questions are welcome at the Forest Discovery Center. During the picnic on the shore of the lake, the carved wooden figures will keep you company.

The bathing beaches around the Upper-Sûre lake invite to relax. The bathing spot "Frounbierg" is situated in the village of Insenborn. Every bathing spot around the Upper-Sûre lake offers restrooms. Ban on Grilling and Open Fires Around Upper-Sûre Lake Due to the ongoing drought and increased risk of wildfires, grilling and any open fires are strictly prohibited around Upper-Sûre Lake until further notice.

At 1 kilometre west of Esch-sur-Sûre, in the heart of the Upper-Sûre Natural Park, lies the Upper-Sûre Lake, dammed up in 1961. The lake with its 380 ha not only provides drinking water supplies and generates electricity, but is also much in demand as a leisure facility. Apart from the protected area for drinking water supplies, which stretches back some 5 km from the main dam (please comply with the notices), a range of watersports are possible (swimming, canoeing, diving, windsurfing and sailing). Do not forget to make a trip on the solar boat. Motor boats are not allowed here.

The church in Insenborn was built in the neo-Gothic style after the plan was drawn up by the architect Biver from Diekirch in 1861 and approved in January 1862. The foundation stone was laid on 12 June 1862. The building material was provided by the inhabitants, including stones from the surrounding area, house stones from Mertzig and wood from various places. The church was consecrated on 16 November of the same year. The baroque furniture was taken from the previous building, created by Jean-Georges Scholtus from Bastogne. It is dedicated to Saint Roch. In the 20th century, the furnishings were modernised, although some statues were preserved. A second interior restoration took place in 2006, during which, among other things, the wooden benches were replaced by chairs. Today's redesigned space includes expressive windows, new oak furniture and distinctive Stations of the Cross.
