Rochefort Trappist Brewery (Abbey Saint-Rémy) — chapel and grounds (partly accessible)

Brouwerij Rochefort is run by the Trappist community of the Abbey of Saint-Remy, in a wooded valley a few kilometres from the village of Rochefort. The monks brew three of the most sought-after Trappist beers in the world here: the 6, 8 and 10. Out of respect for the contemplative way of life, the brewery itself is not open to the public, but the abbey grounds and the church are accessible for reflection and a quiet visit.

Accessibility is partial. The outdoor zone of the abbey and the chapel can be reached via a level paved approach from the visitor car park. The chapel entrance has a small step of around four centimetres; a portable ramp can be set up on request. Inside the chapel there is sufficient turning space in the central nave. An accessible toilet is available to a limited degree in the guest house, but the facilities are basic and not always accessible.

The car park has reserved spaces near the main entrance. The surrounding forest paths are rustic and semi-paved; for an accessible walk it is best to choose the route around the visitor car park or drive on to the accessible route at the Grottes de Han. For beer tasting you can visit the Espace Chimay or the local cafés in Rochefort, some of which, such as Hotel La Bustière, are barrier-free.
