View of the Albert Canal and bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

The ascent after the bridge is almost entirely through forest; once you've almost reached the top, this is the only opportunity to look down.

Eijsden Castle

Highlight • Castle

Eijsden Castle is a manor house with a farm. Before today's castle was built in 1636, there was already a fortified house, the so-called Caestertburg. It is a particularly beautiful castle, built in the Maasland Renaissance style. However, the castle is privately owned, you can only visit the park.

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.

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.
