Upper Sure Natural Park Parc Naturel de la Haute Sure

The Upper Sure Natural Park consists of plateaus, narrow valleys with wooded slopes and the lake of the Upper Sure dam, built in the 1960s to meet the country's drinking water requirements. The natural park is a great place for leisure activities and aquatic sports. It is also an ideal place to learn about the regional ecosystem. Wildlife and eco-tourism are important in this region and tours are devoted to these themes. The area also possesses a rich architectural heritage.

The fair and festival in the natural park are held on the first weekend in July.

A route linking the stone sculptures out in the countryside was produced in the summer of 1995. The Park Center building, in the former cloth factory in Esch-sur-Sure, contains the reception and information center about activities in the area. Typical products of the region can be purchased here.

In a landscape typical of the Ardennes, the following communes form the Upper Sure Natural Park: Boulaide, Esch-sur-Sure, Heiderscheid, Lake of the Upper Sure, Neunhausen, Rambrouch, Wahl and Winseler.
