Riverside Path Along the Meuse

Highlight • River

From the mouth at Hoek van Holland, the Meuse Route runs along the Meuse to its source. This route is now fully signposted in both directions and takes you past nice historical places in the Netherlands, Belgium and France. The Maas was often a border river, a natural barrier to hold back enemies

Quai du Hallage

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The most beautiful section is between the border and Liège. The view across the Meuse to Vise is also very beautiful.

Visé Marina

Highlight • Structure

The Visé marina, located halfway between Liège and Maastricht, is located along the connecting canal of the Albert and Meuse canal via the small lock of Visé.
The marina is ideally located at the crossroads of two main waterways, the Meuse and the Albert Canal, and is easily accessible to boaters in the north of the country, as well as to the Dutch and the French.

Maas Bridge Bike Path

Highlight • Cycleway

Cyclists should definitely use the separate cycle path to cross the Maas. It is not pretty but you are safe from cars. The car lane is one level higher, has no cycle lane and seems relatively dangerous. It feels like you are on a motorway.

Voer stream

Highlight • River

The Voer stream flows through the town of 's-Gravenvoeren. The stream is spanned by numerous small bridges as the houses are on one side and the road is on the other.

Blegny Mine

Highlight • Historical Site

Located between Liège and Maastricht, Blegny-Mine is one of the four authentic coal mines in Europe with underground galleries accessible for the visitors through the original shaft. Equipped with a jacket and a helmet, take the mining cage down to the galleries located - 30 and - 60 metres below the ground level to understand how coal was extracted.

Find out all about the fascinating lives of the miners and their tough working conditions. See the technical equipment underground, the coal, the noisy machinery, ...

The visit continues with the wash and sorting installations, from the arrival until transport and sale of the coal.

Blegny-Mine and the 3 others major mining sites of Wallonia (Bois du Cazier, Bois-du-Luc and Grand-Hornu) are recognized since July 2012 as the Unesco World Heritage.

Blegny Mine

Highlight • Historical Site

The Argenteau-Trembleur coal mine is located in the municipality of Blegny, northeast of Liège, in the Herve foothills. Situated in the countryside, about a hundred meters above the Meuse River, the mine is the last remaining concession in the northeast of the Liège basin.

The site's importance lies partly in its transformation into a tourist attraction and industrial heritage site, and partly in the preservation of its two shafts from different periods (19th and 20th centuries), the most recent of which is still in operation and provides access to underground galleries at depths of -30 and -60 meters.
