08 Upper Sûre Lake
The large, nature park sits northwest of the City of Luxembourg and includes a 939-acre artificial lake with solar-powered boat tours and themed trails along the shore for hiking, biking, or horseback riding. Another site to visit is the former Esch-sur Sure Cloth factory that is now a museum with a working wood-pressing machine from 1807. Guided tours with demonstrations are available upon request. One place you shouldn't miss in the nature park are the ruins of the Esch-sur Sure Castle. The historic site was built around 927, and it wasn't abandoned until after the French Revolution.
