A nice and easy walk to do when visiting Bouillon. The surroundings of the monastery are really spectacular, it is overlooking a small valey and the Semois river. You might go there also by car, but it's much more pleasant to do on foot. The monastery itself is not open to visitors(if I am not mistaken, at least it wasn't when we went there, but in any case, probably you are not missing anything it is a sort of 1960's architecture) but there is a small monastic shop (open approximately 10-17, except on Mondays) when you can buy freshly baked bread and cakes made at this very place, together with a big range of products produced by other monasteries of the region...There is a possibility to return to Bouillon through the forest, to make your little walk more varied...or you may continue little further along the river in the direction of the meander and the hill called "Tombeau de géant"... We really enjoyed this short little walk at the sunset, arriving to the monastery shop just in time before it closed and purchasing a delicious apricot cake. The entire walk may be done even with small children or buggies (provided you take the small road and not the forest track).

In the shop you can buy typical abbaye products, but nothing special. You can visit the church. On some days, the abbaye opens (we were there on Sunday).

Hi, How far of a walk is Abbaye Clairefontaine to Bouillon centre? Or do we need to drive to it?
Visiting it this week. Thank you.

Abbaye de Chaire Fontaine à Bouillon : les biscuits préparés par les religieuses sont un régal ! Ils peuvent concourir avec ceux d'une célèbre maison bruxelloise !
