Fog fingers through the valley as your premium car winds away from Luxembourg City and into the Oesling highlands — the air cools, and stone keeps loom above narrow lanes. At Beaufort Castle, crumbling walls hold stories of a noblewoman whose sorrow is said to still pace the corridor; moss-softened steps and arrow-slit windows frame views where the valley seems to hold its breath.
