The Natur- & Geopark Mëllerdall, together with its 12 member municipalities, is organizing the 1st Mëllerdall Climate, Energy & Environment Day with this year’s theme “sustainable energy & resource use“.

With the Mount vum Bongert, from September 15 to October 15, we celebrate the meadow orchards and their products that are so important for us. During this time there are various events on this topic: theme-specific menus in restaurants, activities for the whole family, picking action, pressing apple juice, fruit varieties Drive-In, etc.

The Natur- & Geopark Mëllerdall (NGPM for short) is delighted: at its 214th session, held in Paris from 30 March to 13 April, the Executive Board of UNESCO accepted the NPGM into the world network of UNESCO Global Geoparks.

The European Diploma for Protected Areas has been awarded by the Council of Europe since 1965. Only regions and landscapes of European importance for the preservation of biological and geological diversity are awarded. These regions must meet clear criteria and define a nature and environmental protection plan. So far, 74 regions in 29 states have been selected.

Our interpretation centre in Beaufort is closed over the holidays. We are looking forward to seeing you again in the next year!

You can watch the last episode of “Fascinating facts in the Natur- & Geopark Mëllerdall” 2021 now.
You can find all episodes here.

Experiences and time together are a great alternative to material gifts. This is even more true if you want to give a gift to someone who already has everything!
You can find all our workshops and excursions in our calendar and our activities brochure.
We also issue vouchers! Please ask for these before 15 December so that they still end up under the tree in time.

If you are professionally or privately involved with orchards (Bongerten) or are looking for regional orchard fruit and their products, you might be interested in our planned orchard platform.

As part of the Wëllplanzesom Lëtzebuerg project, the nature conservation syndicate SICONA and the National Museum of Natural History, in collaboration with the Biological Stations, have created high-quality Luxembourg seed mixtures.

Visit the community garden Luusshaff in Schrondweiler and participate in activities around the theme of orchards (lux.: Bongerten). The apples collected in the community garden will be pressed into apple juice and we will prepare baked apples at the campfire. A pumpkin soup will be cooked at the same time. Afterwards, the food we have prepared together will be eaten in a yurt around the campfire.
