View of the Freyr Cliffs and the Meuse

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view is still the most beautiful from the top of the rock heads. You should be a bit free from giddiness and sure-footed here.

Freyr Rocks along the Meuse

Highlight • Climb

One of the largest climbing areas in Belgium with over 600 routes, some with high levels of difficulty. Also very nice for hiking between the rocks - watch out for falling rocks when climbing at the top!

Trail along the Meuse at the Freÿr Cliffs

Highlight • Trail

Here the path leads very nicely along the water under the slightly overhanging rock face. You should be careful, as the pavement can be a bit slippery.

@Huhues: This is NOT a bike path!

Waulsort Ferry

Highlight • Bridge

They still exist. The old ferries with a ferryman, hand-operated, classic, drifting and steering. And here on the steel cable! Very exciting. For a fee. Tradition. Here. I had a little chat with the passengers.

The Cascatelles

Highlight (Segment) • Waterfall

Picturesque trail climbing up along a stream, nicely lit in the mid-afternoon. Best to hike uphill (can be slippery). At the bottom of the trail sits the ruins of an old mansion, currently under renovation (October 2020).

The loop can be divided into four sections: from the starting point on the ridge, the route first winds its way down to the Meuse, then follows a long stretch along the riverbank to the port of Waulsort. From there, a mountain trail climbs the ridge and through the forest via Falmignoul back to the starting point. There are no …

Beautiful walk with lots of variation near Dinant. Steep descent at the start that I certainly wouldn't have wanted at the end. Beautiful along the Maas and when I say "along the Maas" I mean it: you almost walk in the river... Then slowly up again along many small waterfalls. Really beautiful!

Magnificent views from the top of the rock heads, for which you should be free of vertigo and sure-footed. It is one of the largest climbing areas in Belgium with many routes of sometimes very high difficulty, but it is also beautiful for hiking. You should definitely watch out for falling rocks.
The path along the Maas leads directly along …
