Beaufort Children's Trail
This children's trail invites families to create their own route and experience the artworks along the way. Rather than simply looking at them, children are encouraged to engage with each piece through playful challenges.
Every artwork comes with activities that inspire careful observation, creative thinking and teamwork. Along the route, you'll collect knots on a rope that gradually turns into a playful scoreboard, capturing memories of a day filled with art, seaside adventures and family fun.

Beaufort Triennial sculpture park
The Beaufort Triennial is the three-yearly art-by-the-sea project that has been bringing remarkable artworks to the seafront promenades, beaches and dunes of the Belgian coast since 2003.
The permanent Beaufort sculpture park came about when several coastal municipalities purchased different artworks.
